While our bulbs are rated for outdoor use in damp environments, they are not approved for direct contact with water elements such as rain, sleet or snow. If our bulbs get rained on or accumulate water, they will be damaged and may no longer work. 

Our bulbs are perfect for use in covered and/or enclosed outdoor fixtures, where they will not come in direct contact with water! Underneath the eves of houses, under the hoods of mounted floodlight fixtures or inside lamp posts are common and safe applications for our bulbs.
