what happens if left in rain/humidity/snow?

as long as the battery doesn't submerge in water you should be O.K. I've ridden mine in the rain and have forgot to bring my battery in when it has rained and all is fine.

We left ours outside during most weather. If it was going to be a bad storm we unplugged it. If it looked like hail, we brought it inside. Otherwise, ours stayed under an old oak tree nearly every day.

Dust yes. Water.... light misty rain or a spill are fine but leaving it out in a full rainstorm may not fare well for it.

Yes. I have left it outside since September, throughout the entire winter. It shows no impact from the weather. This is a great product.

I have just installed the box and haven't been in winter weather with it yet. I am planning to install a sheet metal cover over it and will be o.k. if I keep it dry.

I have ridden in the rain with no problem. If you leave your bike outside for long, I suggest you unsnap the computer unit and bring it inside. That feature works very easily.

That amount of rain....Yes...you might also consider sealing the floor some how too

Wind maybe, but snow and rain will not run off canopy and cause it to collapse if not removed. I tried to add extra support too help stop water from accumulating but it never worked.

I live where it snows and MELTS FAST in the Spring. Haven't noticed any terribly wet mail. But, if it is left open even slightly your mail will be soggy.

I think it would be best not to leave it outside. Rain and wind would probably damage it. It seems very delicate.

Cannot be run in rain or snow as the water will get into the electronics. As a backup generator, it can be run after the rain or snowstorm to power a few appliances until power is restored. Or it can be run under an outdoor covered area such as a carport (not enclosed in an attached garage or house) - as long as it isn't getting wet.

I have no idea but it is activated by water so presumably moisture in the air would degrade it but slowly.

Depends out outdoor temp, but it will always loose temp when cover is removed, and also more water lost to evaporation.

I live in Colorado and have had both snow and heavy rain and had no issues. I did built a shelving system inside though just to be safe in the event that water somehow came in the bottom (hasn't happened as of now). I can't speak to wind as I placed the shed right next to the house and it's fairly protected. I will say though that after you get it built and have it loaded with garden stuff it becomes pretty sturdy. Hope that helps.

I leave mine up all year in rain and snow and have no problems. I also purchased the connector cover.

Yes. Even if you left water in the pond during freezing weather, the shape of the pond would probably allow the ice to pop out and not damage the pond itself. Just to be sure, though, I would empty the pond before freezing weather.

You might get away with having it outdoors and under a carport roof, but it was not made for being in the rain or worse. Even a temperature near freezing might harm it, as might strong sunlight.
