Is it weather resistant as I want to take one camping to scare off the 2 and 4 legged intruders. thanks

I honestly don't know. We use it for office security. I would suggest you contact the manufacturer with that question. It would be good to know as I have seen this question asked before. My impression is the case is not watertight. Plus the cold would probably drain the battery faster than normal. But that is just my guess.

I have been camping with this tent a couple times in SW FLORIDA during warm and humid weather, and found the tent very comfortable and besides the mosquito I let in... mosquito free. For camping with Boy Scouts as adult leader I like how easy it is to set up and take down. Not for hiking. Have not had to deal with the rain yet. Hope that answers the question.

Yes. Heather's husband, by the way...I have kept mine in the field for weeks. Have used it it all weather conditions and have remained warm and dry all season. great protection from wind and water. like any tent though, the water drops are a little noisy from the inside. Animals definitely do not notice you through the mesh windows. Squirrel and rabbits come close enough to grab...seriously. Three deer came within 15 feet of me two weeks ago. I definitely recommend this product.

I am not aware of tents being designed for a "temperature range"?? My understanding is that a multi-season tent is designed to resist high winds, snow, heavy rains or extreme heat. I would say that this is a bivvy rather than a tent and is therefore already a compromise in providing shelter from the elements - you buy it because it is light weight and compact. I have used it in the summer, where there were bugs/mosquitos and where it rained. It is possible to ventilate well by unzipping the outer shell and relying on the netting. But you cant really do this when its raining. There is a small vent but it just stops you from suffocating not sweating it out....and in that respect it is not very breathable so I had a lot of condensation build up inside the tent. It does keep the rain out and I imagine it would also be fine if snow fell on it....but thats were you depend on the "temperature range" of your sleeping bag. For me, I plan to erect a small tarp over the tent next season and might eventually just move to this in conjunction with a sleeping bag that matches the conditions.

It's not waterproof but you'd have to be very unlucky. There is a lot of padding and multiple layers. It'd need a lot of rain to be a problem I think. So much rain I'd be looking for a bloke with an arc full of animals...

Dear Jamie,Good day. Cherry here.Many thanks for your interests in our product. Actually it's better to set this tent on the grass ground. By the way, in order to make it stronger,you may need to use some sand bags or weights when bad weather. Hope you can understand.If anything else needs our help then,just contact us freely.Nice dayCherry

Just to remind you, this is a winter tent. I would wake up sweating my ass off at any temperature over 40 degrees F. Maybe it's just because I'm from Minnesota, but you wouldn't be using this unless it's at least cold enough to have snow underneath it. It does appear to be thick enough to withstand small branches or rocks, but I've always used a footprint underneath it unless there is adequate snow. I used a piece of painter's plastic (thick 6mil I think) for a footprint until I sewed one together from ripstop nylon.

We only use it camping. But, if a strong wind comes up, we take it down. Other than that it is a great item.

This is definitely not weather resistant and would most likely cease to function or create risk of electrical fire if used out of doors. If left outside only during good weather it would probably be fine.

Sorry but I've thrown out the packaging and there is no information on the alarm itself about decibels. However, the alarm does emit a loud piercing sound of alert for you. Not being a camper, it is reasonable to assume that using this particular alarm in an outdoor environment may make you a bit edgy depending on where it is located because it is sensitive. The alarm may not only detect 2-legged and 4-legged intruders you are envisioning, it may also detect other 2-legged "friendly" intruders such as birds who may break the alarm barrier. Not sure about protection from non-legged intruders (snakes). Overall, this alarm is just that--alert to you an intruder. I would recommend it for camping but beware of potential false alarms for "friendly" intruders based on its location and how many are used. I would suggest purchasing one and test in your backyard or in a park where critters live to see if this alarm meets your camping needs. If you have a pet (dog or cat), place in a location and release your pet to test the alarm. If you don't have a pet, borrow one--that's what friends are for! Again, not being a camper, I would recommend its use but would have more than one for peace of mind.

My dog is an outside dog. We have the bed on the back patio but it is in a covered protected area. As far as I can tell it is resistant to water but again ours is in a protected area. I am really pleased with the bed.

It should keep you dry. But i would weatherproof the seams. It is a bulky item. I have to pack it in two pouches on my pack which takes up valuable space. Not a bad tent but not light if you intend to try to pack light. It is warm and has kept me dry. I do use a small ground sheet as well and like the moiature barrier that it provides

I wouldn't call the keypad waterproof. Weather resistant yes. I mounted in an exterior vestibule out of direct sun and rain.

It is made out of a heavy canvas so I think it is weather resistant. There are metal pieces that are used to hang the swing and I'm not too sure if they are weather resistant. It might rust and the fabric might get mildew if exposed to harsh weather.

We have ours out exposed to the weather and have not had any issues with it. So I would say yes!

Mainly camp in wooded areas, so I can't really speak to how hot it gets in direct sun with no wind. We did put it up a few times in an open spot. I found it to be one of the best items we have bought. Sturdy and it is all mesh except for the roof. The walls are nearly perpendicular. So headspace even if it rains. But it isn't really a dark color. It's a light greenish tan. Like the definition of khaki. So I guess I have not found this to be an issue.

I wouldnt recommend this for cold weather camping, the material seems exceptionally thin, the netting is prone to tearing easily, we used it in central oregon in august and while we didnt have the leaking issues some people have had I wouldn't imagine it would hold heat very well. there would be the advantage of having more people in the tent but I dont think it would offset the other problems. overall I really liked this for hot weather camping, the air flowed really well out of the top keeping even the daytime temperatures low.
