Can these lights be used for both indoor and outdoor use? Are they waterproof?

Not waterproof but water resistant. Make sure you wire an in line fuse. And ground the lights to a good solid ground. I have had these lights for a few years now. Drove thru rain and some snow and they still function like they were new. No issues at all...... knock on wood

I don' know if they are intended for outdoor use. However, I live near a beach and almost everything reacts to the humid and ocean spray conditions. After about 2 years these fixtures have held up very well.

They are great for indoor but not enough power for outdoors. You will need halogen lights to do that from Home Depot .

I'm not sure if they will be safe to use outside. You probably can, but I use them inside for my night lights.

These lights are not meant for outdoor use, as they are not sealed to keep moisture out. You may be able to use them under an overhang where they are protected from the weather but they wouldn't last long where I live in New England.

If you are going to use these outdoors, I'd recommend putting them in a waterproof enclosure. I use them quite a bit and when they get damp, LEDs fail.

They work outside with low voltage, however, in my situation,they are protected from direct contact with water. I suspect they would still work for low voltage lighting, even if they were occasionally wet

These are not for wet applications. Can be used in a patio or deck cover if there is space between a ceiling and a roof as I have done. These can not be covered with insulation, you need fully in closed cans for that application. I do not like any of these pot lights due to the massive amount of heat they build up. I have replaced all my bulbs with LED bulbs. Spendy but uses a tenth of the power and NO heat.

Yes. I have installed these lights on a wall or pole with the mounting bracket I always use a waterproof box for the electric connection.

They seem to be waterproof. Putout a good amount of light. The housing is a bit flimsy. They work fine.

No. While these lights look great, they would not tolerate outdoors. Rain would short out the electronics and hot summer sun would melt the plastic parts. Sorry!

I don't know about that one. I do know they are completely sealed and waterproof. I think the lights themselves would hold up well. I'm not sure about the wires though. I ended up using 3M high grade double stick tape to ensure they won't come off.

I don't think so. But would not take much to do so, the back of the lights come off and don't know if the front clear plastic is glued good enough to keep water out after being submerged. I don't see why you cant water proof them. And be easy on mounting them, easy to crack. But vary nice led lights, worth the money.

Only if the deck is 100% water proof. These lights can not come in contact with water.

Yes, they are outdoor deck lights and can be wherever they will be exposed to the weather, including rain.

For outdoor use, you can use the LED floodlight. You can refer to this link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DRBXYBQ
