Does it have a way to drain rain water if left outside?

No, but it's small enough to easily just tip to empty . I would not suggest leaning out in weather, would probably rust pretty quickly.

No it does not, as a matter of fact my is filled with water right now from rain. I think it is set up that way so no hot ambers would fall through and burn the lawn etc

no it doesn't but I am sure it would be easy enough to drill a hole in the bottom of the pan in the center

Yes, there is a drain hole in the center of the bottom shelf. Also there are places for water to drain off in the corners of the top shelf.

Does not have a port for drainage - just the standard method of dumping the tank when full - sorry

Absolutely. We haven't used it to completely drain ours, just to lower the water level after rain, but has worked just fine.

The unit does have a drain fitting at the bottom in case of some kind of unit failure resulting in the water not shutting off. When the unit is functioning normally, no water will go to the drain. At the very least you could run tubing into a bucket but I would be careful to periodically check it, or as an extra precaution, you could attach the drain tube to a condensate pump to remove the water to the outside.

I have it plugged into a gfi outlet on my deck. It works real well. If you experience rain overnight however, I suggest you pick the reservoir up off of the lower unit and tip the lower unit to drain the excess accumulation of water from the rain. I thought that i had a defective unit at first, but it worked immediately after draining the excess water.

No, it does not. Also, it's not a water tight as you'd expect from Rubbermaid. During heavy rain water will seep in.

No. Just the opening for rain (circular "spout" so to speak) Mine turned out to have a leak at bottom. Very disappointed. Hope this helps...Peggie, San Ramon, No. CA.

There is a plug in the bottom with a hose that runs to the outside for draining.

Yes it does. After a spell of rain, I will wipe off the accumulated water on the top surface. I also modified the base so I could remove the lamp and set them in the direct sun in order to charge them up for the coming evening hours. I do this just to keep them at their brightest during the night.

Hello, there are no drains. You will have to dump the water out when you are finished.

yes, but don't place it more than a few (2 or 3 in) above the rain barrel. make sure to put an overflow outlet in the final rain barrel or if connecting them in series.(0-0-0- the 0 = barrels and the - = connectors or outlet/overflow)

Yes, but it still has to be plugged in. So you don't want to leave it out if it rains.

Yes, it can, but like any water heater, you will need to route the water somewhere. I disconnect mine and remove it from the wall and drain outside, as I take mine out in the winter months as it is in an unheated area. It is very easy to do this.

I don't think so. If I leave it out and it rains, it doesn't stay filled with rainwater. It's great for garden cleanup and very light with a big wide opening.

Yes but it doesn't have drain plug like the "water" side does. We do water in both sides.

No, it doesn't, but it's easy to dump. Older models have a drain hole with a hose.
