it did not do good in a heated area; it broke down in and stopped working in 14 months; it was out of warantee; bad item!

Well, this is on my screen porch so it is not in modified tempurature in a warm weather climate. I haven't had it long enough for the cold season here.

My first response would be yes but always be sure that it doesn't get too warm.The heat may even irritate the area.

If the location has the necessary electrical access available and is kept protected from the elements it should be fine. Please also note any such item should be protected from roughhousing people, animals and small rodents which may think it is a good nesting site!

I guess it would work in a covered area. The light isn't that bright though. Maybe equivalent to a very bright nightlight, but with larger radius.

I have it in an open area that is at least 500sq.ft and it is working beautifully. You will be pleased.

Not in the immediate area, but I run it in the house with pets in another room no problem. If you have a house HVAC unit circulating air it shouldn't be a problem.

The place where I am is very dry.... but from finish it appears it can take the outside porch mid East coast weather.. it is very sturdy and very well finished. .. I guess until you have this soaked in rain regularly, this will do fine. .. Good luck. .

That is where I have mine installed on the eve of the house and it works well. Be sure to protect it with overhead weather protection,

We don't live in a super hot place but we haven't had any problems with it. I would guess it would be just fine.

I've had it about 6-8 feet away and it seemed ok. I think it would work further away.

I think it might. Very effective indoors and in a small outdoor space, could do some good. Don't know how rain or irrigation might effect it though.

Don't know...would try a small test area first. I think it would be OK, but test it.

Possibly in covered areas, but I wouldn't use it areas exposed to rain/snow.

It is very sensitive. You may want to read some of the funny reviews about the FBT. But otherwise I would say yes it should work in a small area.

I have always used it in a house but don't think it would be a problem! It is pretty quiet.

Depending on location you are driving, around city it will pick up good but going farther out or under bridges it will be cutting in and out. I would not recommend it. If you want little better reception stick it on a top corner of a windshield. It worked for me.

Mine is in my kitchen so I don't know. But I wouldn't think it would favor very well outside since it is made to be indoors. But good luck.
