How well would these panels hold up if they were hung outside, where they could be exposed to some rain??

I don't believe it would withstand the rain or wind. It is very light weight.

These are definitely indoor-only panels. I fear that the glue holding the coverings to the frame would not survive moisture.

I have tried them in an outdoor lamppost enclosure (rainproof) but they do not last due to degradation from the humidity. < 6 months even with occasional use. I am in the Southeastern USA; maybe in low-humidity regions they would last longer.

I would think it could withstand some rain - however, I haven't tried that as we use a Barbeque grill cover (that also covers the light) whenever we're not using the grill.

I have mine outside, they are not a water tight fixture but they are well protected from the elements. I have not had any problems, they have been up for about 3 months. So far so good!!

If they are good batteries they should last a year or more, very easy to hang very soft nice light glowing colorsI had about 12 of them in my backyard last year, from an awing you might have to use a flexible wire to make a good hook connection however, if a storm comes up with high winds I would take them down or heavy snow The glass panel is easy to wipe off with a soft cloth or I use my finger�

They are for "outdoor" use but I don't think that these ones would last very long in the open with lots of rain and sun

They're not designed for outdoor use, id be worried about damp air causing corrosion over time since they're not sealed. Could it work? Maybe in a dry climate, or in a very sheltered soffit.

I've got them in outdoor flood fixtures (the kind that have metal shades) and they work very well. They've been rained on a number of times while both turned on and off.

I have them installed on all 4 sides of the house exposed to all elements year-long. So far they still seem to be resisting the weather ok, although not at the 7/12 rate of rain.

I don't know how it would hold up in heavy rain, but it's great shelter for mild/moderate rain. I live in Oregon, and mostly use it for a sun shade, but have also spent time out while raining.

These are not protected from rain etc., and so are not rated for outdoor use. However wrapping them in permanent watertight plastic, AND with necessary draining hole or provision IN THE BOTTOM should make them usable outdoors.

Ours are mounted under the roof over our deck. The reason we use them is to block low-lying sun that comes under the roof, and to protect during light rain showers. We have only had them up for one summer, and had no problems. They are protected from the weather however, so I don't really know how they would hold up if they were frequently wet while rolled up.

It has rained since we have installed these but not a heavy rain. But so far, they are fine. They are very heavy duty. I think they will be water safe.

They are hung using hooks to the frame. Works well. Then of course the screen door zips. We had it up for about 4 days of heavy rain and it took the storms very well. Jim

No I don't think that it would hold up in the weather. It is like a heavy contact paper. Hope that helps you.

Definitely. Mine sits on a swing in a totally exposed deck. We have been getting a lot of rain and every time it dries completely. Weatherproof all the way. I love it.

It would hold up in the sun and rain. But I'm not sure the seals are tight enough to keep the water out. It doesn't look air tight. We used it in the garage.
