is this light suitable for outdoor use?

It does not say outdoor anywhere on the package. My guess is no, unless it is fully sheltered from the rain.

This light cannot be used where it will be directly exposed to rain, as water will collect inside the bulb. But it can be used outside where it's sheltered, such as under an eave.

I have installed probably more than a 100 of these for my business and haven't had a problem with one of them. I have installed them in areas sheltered and unsheltered without any issues.

Yes it's excellent for outdoor light but wont recommend using it for motion-detection.

I say yes in a particular environment. I have it in a hanging light fixture in the back porch and it works well... The light is bluish, like moonlight!... And it serves the purpose, which is lighting the steps. So, outdoors,but under a roof!

Not sure it's meant for outdoor use. I would think it would be fine as long as it doesn't get rwined on.

I don't think it can be used outdoors... It is a great fixture though for indoors.. :)

As far as I know it's not rated for outside use. There is a small cooling fan inside the light that may break if it gets wet. Great light for inside use if you don't mind hearing the built in cooling fan ( not that loud)

This lamp does not have an all weather enclosure, but if you place it in a protected area, it should be fine outdoors.You will need the proper socket for it to work.

Our Fairy Lights can be used outdoor. However, we would like to let you know that they are not waterproof so protection is needed especially for the battery box.

Yes, I use it in exactly that application. It doesn't rain much in my area, but I trust the claims that the lights are weatherproof.

I doubt that it is rated for outdoor use. Perhaps in a weather-protected enclosure you could.

I am not sure how "protected" the area would be, however, this light is for indoor use only. I wouldn't recommend use outside due to moisture, etc.

I did not use it, My electrician said it will not work with the sign lighting ( outdoor), so all I can say that it is not suitable for outdoor use.

it depends on what you mean by good. Is it durable enough? yes. would I use it outside? if I had an extra one sure. it depends how bright you want you light post. if you actually want to see rather than for aesthetics then, yes use it

i'm sure it could be plugged into an outdoor socket as long as it would not get wet. The light is designed for indoor use only and it's not weather proof

These lights are not meant for outdoor use, as they are not sealed to keep moisture out. You may be able to use them under an overhang where they are protected from the weather but they wouldn't last long where I live in New England.

I doubt if it is waterproof. It could be used outside if you didn't need the light to work, however the base would have to be weighted.

Its very bright and is viewable in lit rooms. Im not sure about outside and will probably need in direct sunlight to view
