Can you use in out door lights

I believe G7 recommends against that. I have them in fixtures inside my garage, but they are not directly exposed to the elements.

Don't think it's rated for outdoor but I have one outside under the roof of our entry door

I know this is an old question, but I've had one in our pole light which is inside a fixture of course, but still completely outside. It's worked for over 2 years in -25ºF weather and 100ºF+ weather so I would have NO problem suggesting these for use outside as long as they're not open to the elements. Best 10 bucks I've spent! I now have 5 of these and not one failure.

I doubt it. We had to replace these lights where we had them because they were on too long and seemed to overheat. I doubt they could be used outside. They're pretty sensitive lights.

Yes you should be able to use those flood light bulbs , mine is outside, so I use outdoor bulbs only, but whether it is in or out you should be fine.

Yes to both questions. 12Volts, 20Watts, 30 deg light beam spread. Out door landscaping Malibu type enclosed light fixture use, ok.

I use it for outdoor lighting, but the receiver is inside the garage. Florescent lights do not work on this system.

I use mine inside for decorative lights in a bay window. As far as outside use I would say no.

Yes you can and they work great. I use them for my outside house lights to come on and off at a set time.

I don't think so. I am using them in outdoor stringlights. You should ask the seller. This seller provides amazing customer service, and is very attentive.

I think the 1st two responses are correct. Hardware-House lighting is well constructed but, this line is not intended for outdoor use. I would error on the side of safety and install outdoor rated lights and fans. Please feel free to call me if you have other questions or concerns. We'll be glad to help.ChristopherComplete Home Hardware615-794-3880

I currently have them indoors only, but I'm sure they can be used outdoors just like any other bulb.

It will work outdoors. I am using at least 4 as accent light outside with the light fixture belowParadise GL22724BK Low-Voltage Cast-Aluminum 20-Watt Halogen Floodlight with Glass Lens, BlackHope it helps.

Don't think it's because your using outdoors, it's labeled for indoor or out door use. I use two of them in my outdoor security lights, and have not had any problems. My lights are protected by the roof overhang, but even if they weren't the fixture is sealed well enough to keep the weather out. it sound like others have mentioned, a loose bulb, or a loose electrical wire connection

Yes, they can be used outside provided they are installed in a weatherproof, waterproof enclosure. I use them as accent landscape lighting to light the peaks of my home and they look great. Not to bright but not too dark.

I don't see why not. They appear to be sealed like any other light bulb on the market. So long as there is shielding from direct rain fall (as in a standard outdoor fixture) it should be fine. The only issue may be the light output. Generally outdoor lights for usable illumination are rated at 100 watts while this bulb is rated to replace 60 watt incandescent bulbs. It is still a bright light and perfect for indoor use or perhaps as a porch light, but as an area light for outdoors you may want something with more output.

No these are for the interior only. They're not bright enough for the exterior nor would it be the right type. You need exterior bulbs for that.

I dont see why it wouldnt work outside BUT not what it is made for. Light is extremely bright so might effect neighbors and I would worry about it being damaged or stolen. Great light tho!

I have only used them as chandelier bulbs..they have small fittings similar to Christmas lights. My answer to you is they are not described as OUTDOOR LIGHTS.
