can it be used outdoors

I have all my sensors inside barns that are 200ft. from my house and it has worked well. Don't know how they would do if they were outside in the weather.

it's not designed for true outdoor use but it might work if you can seal up both items. You could possibly seal it a small zip-lock back to keep water out of it, but if it has direct exposure to sunlight (or heat or cold) it might cause it to have some issues.

Dear Deatra, short answer yes. I've been using two units outdoors in hail, rain and sun without problems for two years . We don't get snow in Brisbane. The sender part ( the bigger bit) has a rubber seal to keep it water proof. I have found the product excellent. I have one on my sliding gate and a pedestrian gate, as well as on my garage door but its out of the weather. Hope this answers your question. CheersMichael B

I don 't use it outside, so I really can 't answer your question. Sorry. It does work very well inside.

The company should answer. However, I do not believe that this was designed for outdoor use.

If the surface is flat and dry (concrete or asphalt) yes u can use it outdoors however as a one time thing.- it wouldnt last outdoors if it rained or got damp - the unit is plastic and the turf/run is a good enought turf quality to last outdoors for use - as long you bring it indoors at the end of its use!

You could use it outdoors as long as it is on a flat and hard surface like a sidewalk/driveway/deck. I wouldnt use it on thick grass. I use it in my apartment on hardwood and carpet (no access to a yard)

No, I would not unless you could put in inside a weatherproof case. It is not designed for outdoor use.

I don't think so, but I've never used it outside. I use it for my home photo studio.

Absolutely, if you use it outside. It's not delicate, but, it's not indestructable.

Yes, as long as it does not get wet. Works great in a classroom so it should work fine outdoors.

It could be used outdoors IF it is under an eave or patio cover. It is definitely NOT designed to be used in an open, weather exposed, condition. The amount of light (lumens) emitted from this fixture is limited. It's enough to provide emergency lighting in the event of a power failure but would probably prove insufficient in an open exterior location.

The one I purchased says that if it is not marked for outdoor use, it is ONLY for use indoors. And mine is NOT marked outdoor. So, my guess is no.

Not sure...there was nothing in the packaging that indicated it could be used outside. You might want to ask someone at radio shack or best buy off their opinion.

I have one, It's not meant to be used Outside. Certainly if you put it outside, it will work, but I wouldn't want to get it wet or leave it exposed to extreme weather. I don't see it being capable of withstanding the elements.

should be no problem. I use mine outside and have had not problem. I would not leave it out in the weather for extended periods

Can it be used outdoors? Yes. Is it wise or likely to end well? No, no it's not. :)

It can be used outdoors. However, it would work better in a shady location if you are using it lighted. I use mine indoors and notice when the sun hits the signs, the lights are not as noticeable. It is NOT weather proof so don't leave out in rain or other extreme conditions.
