What happens if this model gets rained on?

That crossed my mind, and I always make sure rain is not in the forecast when I put it in my window. The item is $30. So I just use my common sense -- it's an electrical appliance, and if it's product description doesn't say it's waterproof, assume it isn't. As to what happens when it gets rained on, I would rather not experiment to find out.

I can't answer this one from experience, as mine has not been rained on, and I can't seem to find the manufacturer's site anymore (it was up and running when I purchased mine). I wouldn't leave it out indefinitely--sun and weather will eventually destroy nearly any plastic material. I wouldn't worry about rain, though.

The rain hasn't caused any problems, exposing it under water might be a problem make sure the charging/reset port is closed with the screw and rubber attachment that comes with it

I would contact Bonide on their web site. It rained a few hours after I put it down and it worked great, it was the only thing that did work.

I can't truly answer your question. Personally, my logic tells me, I would be taking an enormous mistake by using ANY piece of electric equipment while it was raining. To big of a chance of an electrical shock. So, no I would not use it in the rain. Doesn't mean that it can't be done though.

If you contact Colemon, they will the warranty does not cover wind or rain damage. If you just bought it, Amazon may replace it.

I wouldn't take it out in a heavy downpour. I have had difficulty with this machine it just stopped working and when i got on to the company i bought it off they didn't want to know me. All in all I'd stay away from this product and look at a different model maybe

john, I have it mounted under a roof overhang so it does not get direct rain. But so far works without any issues.

Its rained every day since we assembled it. We have a small dripp from the seam but it took several days of rain for the drip to even appear and a drop of Gorrilla Glue on it resolved it.

The unit is weather resistant so it should be fine in normal rain, but it is not water-proof, so it obviously shouldn't be submerged.

Ours has been rained on and did fine. I wouldn't submerge it. It doesn't seem to have rubber seals to keep water out if you did.

My original one lasted ten years with exposure to the Western sun and very hot temperatures, but it was protected from rain. I am not sure how direct exposure to moisture would effect the unit.

I have never rode in the rain, and I have never heard that. It does not seem likely to me when all the electronics and battery pack is all sealed up. This bike is GREAT!!

I used mine in a race about one month ago.... It rained 4 hrs.... We got 3 inches of rain that day. It still works like new.

I've been in the rain with it and haven't had a problem. Make sure that the charger cover is in place as it detaches easily.

I would suggest getting an outdoor model as even in covered areas there can be high humidity.

Do your research on this product if you haven't already. I have been happy with mine as long as it's not raining. When I rains I have drips and water from all of the seams that are supposed to be sealed from the factory. It does have a warranty but I didn't know how to go about sending it back
