3w not waterproof cheap light works well but not what I expected I don't like the zoom

Personally, I wouldnt be looking at the cheapest light on Amazon if I wanted specs that are associated with more expensive lights. But thats just me lol! This is a very good, basic headlamp-especially for what it costs. Dont expect that its gonna be a diving light or blind deer at night(well, I dunno...maybe it would blind deer? Never tried it).

It is not waterproof. There are no gaskets to seal the battery compartment and the telescoping lamp it metal to metal with no gasket. It is 5w and 300lm. For the $3.60, it is a very bright light for the money, but I wouldn't wear it in a downpour.

Sorry, I can't give you technically accurate info on the waterproof. I have used mine many, many times and am pleased with its durability and how bright it is. I have dropped it a few times on the floor. If you plan on using it much I would recommend rechargeable AAA batteries. The box on the similar model I have with the red band says 5W.

They dont claim it to be waterproof but water resistant. Yeah it is pretty resistant against water. Doesnt distort sound. I sure wouldnt submurge it though.

I looked over the specifications available online of both items and they appear to be nearly identical (temp range, materials used). I could not find the exact same specs for both, but noticed the spec sheet for the 3M product has a disclaimer on it anyway, so I doubt you could trust a comparison 100% anyway. I do know the product is still working for me to hold the plastic part inside my clothes dryer, has not required change or reinforcement and doesn't shed parts of itself, and the adhesive is intact, after 14 months.

I returned the item without opening it because I didn't need it by the time it was delivered. So I don't know whether it's waterproof; I was going to use it inside only, and didn't seen anything in the description about it being waterproof.

It is a pair.The description is of the construction.It is not about the quantity.So it is a pair as presented.I hope that my answer was useful.

Resistant and waterproof are 2 different statement. They are not waterproof.

Any idea what's actually in the box when you get this item? The technical info states that the box says 285wt, but 285w is what is printed on the actual product.

Oops, I forgot to add that the unit is sturdy and definitely waterproof. You won't be disappointed:)

There is a rating code on this product called IP. The IP code that was assigned to this product is IP 66. IP codes work that the two numbers are independent and dictate a different property of the product itself. From the first 6, it has been tested that this product is "Dust Tight" meaning that "No ingress of dust; complete protection against contact" will be a quality you should expect. From the second 6 the product has been tested against "Powerful water jets" meaning that something similar to a shower would have no damaging effect on this product. For a fully waterproof product the IP 67 rating would be given instead.

Barb you are doing better than me neither me or any of my friends have been able to figure out how the GSI works period. As far as it being waterproof i will have to somehow figure how it works first i even have the instructions i bought the GSI sometime ago.

The picture I see from Ted is what I got. If I click on it though, I go to a description of the waterproof led driver with a picture of a video converter, in six views -- Heads-up seller! LEDWholesalers! Check it out. Wrong Photo.

I got the 5-PW...my guess is that it would include the PW and SW but not the GW...not 100% sure about that though.

We ended up sending this one back. When we used it it seemed waterproof enough, but there were too many levels. I just wanted a easy one. The one I ended up with died cause it got wet, but it worked fine until then. Hope this helps

Nothing on paperwork indicated waterproof, just that it is for outdoor use. When I installed it, I caulked around the edges of the back plate cover. I had one of these at another house and it is still there and works 15 years later.

Although it's well made, I doubt that it's "waterproof". I'd say "water resistant".

As I recall, the posted 'Features' and included 'User Guide' state this unit is "Water resistant" as opposed to water-proof. In other words, it's not recommended to just mount this unit as-is outside and unprotected. I purchased several for autos that are not driven frequently and mounted the panel inside the vehicle flat on the dash next to the windshield - ran the wires through the door rubber seal (being careful to not crimp the wire) to the battery. Keeps the battery fully charged. If it's necessary to have the panel outside, then purchase some plexiglass and clear RTV silicone and build a weather-tight case to protect the unit from water and condensation. ~ S As I recall, the posted 'Features' and included 'User Guide' state this unit is "Water resistant" as opposed to water-proof.
