Are these lights water proof?

Not waterproof but water resistant. Make sure you wire an in line fuse. And ground the lights to a good solid ground. I have had these lights for a few years now. Drove thru rain and some snow and they still function like they were new. No issues at all...... knock on wood

Yea they have a pretty resistant plastic casing around the led but note its universal mines could fit because of my after market exhaust

Yes, as long as the diodes are not directly open the rain of water from above. Water from below (such as rain on wood or other support that the LED lights are mounted on) does not com into contact with the base connectors at the bottom of the LED "Bulb".

The lights are rated weatherproof (IP 65). Meaning they can be exposed to the high humidity and light moisture of outdoor use. They cannot be fully submerged, that would require our IP 67 lights. This may be an error in the listing and we will work to correct it.

I have had them on the back of my 1989 Dodge Ram for several months now being used a backup lights. They are installed in the receiver trailer hitch and see lots of rain water. I haven't had any issues with them not working so I'd say that they must be waterproof or at least water resistant. Satisfied with them so far.

I have some outdoors currently, but they would probably not work if they got wet. I have one in an enclosed lantern so that water can't get in.

Stay away. They are not water proof and within a few weeks the leds were going out.

I do not know but the ones in the picture and description are not the lights that I recieved. The description says they are waterproof but the ones I was shipped are not.

They are advertised as underwater lights. We bought 2 for wet outside water under waterfall not submerged. They have a short pigtail so I wouldn't go too deep. That aside ours have worked perfectly and no complaints.

Yes they are. There is a weather strip inside to protect the interior. I have 8 of these lights as a pathway and it get very flooded because we get a lot of rain and they are working no problem. You shouldn't have any issues. I love them, they work so well and are pretty bright.

they are designed for boat so I would say water resistant but not proof, you don't want to immerse them into water.

They are waterproof from rain that you might encounter on the trail, but haven't tried to soak them in water. Like I said in my post, they might not be the best lights in the market, but they are a great BANG-for-the-BUCS ($$) kinda lights. Have worked perfect for my needs.

im not sure if they are water proof, but i am not impressed with the beam of light it shines, it looks great from a distance but when i used one in my snow blower i could not see anything in the dark, it seemed to be really defused and not functional for that purpose.

These are fully water proof. Ours get rain and sprinkler water on them daily.

I'm not sure these are actually rated for underwater or how to create a true waterproof connection. In my experience the manufacturing on these is not perfect. I had one recently fill with water just sitting in the garden for landscape lighting. The most it would have been exposed to was the sprinklers and a bit of rain. Otherwise, in my case, they mostly work well as landscape uplights.

Yes you can, just make sure the lights dont get wet cause they are not water proof.

They are outdoor lights but I would not buy another one. They seem to leak or something which causes them to dim when it rains.

You will need to purchase the waterproof (IP 67) models available on Amazon or HitLights.com for full submergence. These lights will not operate under water.
