Are these pinwheels waterproof? Has anyone had experience with them in the rain? I've "planted" mine outside but am wondering what would happen to them if it rained. Thank you for your help.

The sun fades them and the wind, if strong enough will make them disappear, but the rain doesn't seem to affect them.

Mine are in a flower bed w/ sprinklers AND get rained on. No issues... Buy them, they sound great! They should be fine.

Yes and no. They do work in the rain and I did see that they accumulated a little water but it eventually evaporated. If they can hold up to heavy Florida rain, I am sure sprinklers would not be a problem.

They are not waterproof while in use. They will probably rust if they get wet. It is a great product, tho, and does a good job cooling the motor.

They perfom well in rain. I have a pair of Gatorskins on my rain bike (waterproof panniers) and have not had a problem with traction. They are fabulous tires..!!

The bags do not come water proof. I was able to "waterproof" them using a 3M waterproofing spray. I say "waterproof" because they certainly will never be fully waterproof (dunked under water). They are a tiny bit water resistant but in a heavy rain they will collect water. If you give them a spray with that 3M stuff you will be good for a while. In edition to spraying them I also used tent seam sealer. I still wouldn't rely on them to be left out in the rain if there were electronics in them.

These lever nuts are for indoor use only. They are not weatherproof at all. They do make wirenuts for outside that have a silicone gel to make them weatherproof, i would reccomend using those for outside landscape lighting

I wouldn't leave them out in the rain or the elements - but if you have it by the pool and it gets a few splashes - OK. We love ours Still!

We have had our wind spinner outside on our patio all summer (we live near Portland OR) We've had some heavy rain and the battery has been fine. We bought our spinner in Maui from a business in an outdoor kiosk. We love our wind spinner and have had no trouble with the battery outside. We do plan on bringing it in when winter comes because we won't be using our outdoor patio. Hope this helps

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

I've had that happen to a big air plant "ball". I could be the root (even though they're only used for securing themselves to rocks and wood) may have gotten too much water or the plant itself may have been watered too frequently.

First check batteries. If OK check for moisture in the light. I have on on my fifth wheel and if it rains hard it will quit but dry it out and it is ok. I have had one on my porch for 2 years stillworking.

I had some bamboo clothes pins before. One time in the rain, and they molded terribly. I don't know if there are different qualities of bamboo or what, but I was really upset about that. IT was the reason I picked bamboo over regular wood. At this price range, i wonder if i'd have the same issue.

I have had not problems with these in the rain. I have drove at night in very hard rain recently and they did well.

They are not waterproof. I do not use them in an irrigated area. Incidental water/rain does not seem to be a problem. I also bring them in during the late Fall and Winter months.

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.

Haven't used mine in the rain, yet. I, personally, wouldn't hold it under water, but, I imagine, it would work in a light rain. It would be a good idea to lightly grease all "0" rings occasionally. Also, I don't use mine on high unless I need a massive light, to save battery life.
