Can these be used on outdoor flood lamps &amp; if so, how do they adhere?

If you have a cover on the flood it could be cut to six and the frame would hold it. It might work with static cling but I haven't tried that. I had a frame for it to fit in. The sheets don't have any adhesive back.

I actually used them in outdoor light fixtures. I cant say that there is any obvious streaking in that setting.

Hello,To be honest, I haven't used them outside yet. My fixtures outside are different than inside.

I wouldn't consider them waterproof. They are made to replace a bulb in a fixture , not to be exposed to the elements.

I use them in my landscape lights. These are sealed to be fairly weatherproof.

i have been using several of the Philips led bulbs above and have had good luck with them. They are rated 'wet location' but some led flood outdoor lamps are rated 'damp location' which is not as high a rating for outdoor use with the possibility of direct rain.

These lights are NOT waterproof. If you're going to use them outside, they can't be anywhere that they might actually get really wet. Particularly not somewhere that water might run down in from the 'back' side.

NO However, they are not water proof and with exposed contacts, could short out. Note that the center for a connection is supposed to be positive but often is not. The lamps will not work unless polarity is correct, they are diodes after all.

I would say it would be around 90 degrees. I am using them in my outdoor flood lights and they seem to work well.

Sorry on vacation so that I cant answer. However, I will say lights are great, adhesive is horrible. Being water proof these lights are heavier and the adhesive doesnt hold....

The packaging says "not suitable for totally enclosed fixtures or insulated air tight recessed down lights" and "do not use where directly exposed to water". But it sounds like your lamp post would be OK. Note that it also says "not compatible with photo controls..."

Although I haven't tried it, I think they'd probably stand up just fine to heavy moisture, though not sure what direct water would do. They'll stick to tile with no problem and provide useful light. You will have to stock up on triple-A batteries, though.

I'm so sorry, but I haven't used any outdoors, only indoors. I don't see any reason you couldn't. I plan on using in outdoor covered porch when old bulb needs replacing.

Well, they are plastic. My wonder would be how well the adhesive would stick in a highly humid environment. I would give it a shot though. Good luck!

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

I think they will work fine if the voltage matches and your fixtures are truly weatherproof. The bulbs cannot become wet or damp. Although others seem to have had bad performance, we have had no issues with these bulbs (used indoors). The dimming is not perfected, in that one can dim these bulbs only to about 1/2 of their stated output, but that's a general problem for all but incandescent light bulbs.

I used them outdoors, no problem. They were however, inside a light fixture.
