Is this weatherproof? I mean, I'm going to install this device on a motorcycle so, it will resist heavy rain?

I have it install in a vehicle but from the looks of the instrument I don't think it is weatherproof, maybe if you can have it install under your seat and just have the antenna out in the open or clear view of the sky but away for eyes.

This model is not weatherproof. youd need a self contained unit like this MOTORCYCLE AND CAR VEHICLE GPS TRACKER MOTORBIKE TLT-2H WITH FREE GPS TRACKING SOFTWARE BY @CHI

I've ridden with my in the rain and it survived just fine. During one particularly heavy downpour during a long training ride I wrapped some cling wrap around it before attaching it to the bike but looking back I feel like that was probably unnecessary.

as with any electronics I would not advise using it fulll time in the wet weather (outside in the rain) , the motor in the rear has vents and I am sure will ultimaly lead to malfunction and possibly electrocution..Bill P

I keep mine outside but under cover from direct rain. It has a battery pack that could get wet. Also the plastic could deteriorate over time in direct sun. I would say weather resistant but not weather proof.

It is not weatherproof. It may protect from light drizzle. Honestly, mine busted within a few months.

Looking at the one I have, I don't think I would mount it without protection from the elements. Direct rain wouldn't do it any good. My manual that came with it said nothing about where to mount it, only leave space for air circulation. I'm using mine in a 5th wheel camper. Hope this helps. Great product.

I've ridden in light rain with no problems. It appears to be plenty water resistant to me. I wouldn't be hesitant to ride in the rain with it for sure. By the way, it is VERY bright with 180 degree visibility. My favorite rear light is the VIS 180 from L&M;, but for the money this sucker is hard to beat. It also has a great battery.

I don't ride much in the rain, but it seems to be highly tolerant to rain, if not waterproof. There is a rubber o-ring seal on the battery pack, a rubber plug cover on charge port, the and the power switch is also rubber.

Hi, I checked with my son, whom I bought this for. He has ridden in the rain and had no problems with it. He parks his bike indoors. We live in IL, so it isn't as rainy as in Seattle. I hope this helps.

If by that you mean "is it water proof", almost nothing electrical that isn't sealed is safe for outdoor use. On the other hand it is ruggedly built with an on-off switch to turn on-off electrical power. But I wouldn't leave it outside in the rain.

The manufacturer doesn't make any claims about the unit being waterproof, and I've never left mine out in the rain. The individual panels are covered with some sort of clear plastic material that looks like it would keep out water from the face, but the entire rest of the unit is made of a woven nylon fabric that doesn't look like it would keep out moisture at all. In fact it look like it might just sponge it up and hold it, exposing the wires that are inside connecting the four panels, as well as the 5v USB ports in inside the pouch to water. My guess is that letting it get wet (even in a light rain) would be a bad thing. I would not even recommend leaving it out over night where dew is a factor.

I've used this on my bike in light rain conditions and everything inside, including my phone, stayed dry. I don't know what the manufacturer says, but I would say this is water "resistant," just not water "proof."

Everything seems to be weather resistant as far as I can tell. Mine has been left out in the rain a couple of times and is showing no ill effects from it.

I have mine mounted behind a storm door. It looks like it might be weather proof, but I would not trust it for long term. In the two years since install, I have only had 2 times when it rejected my key-strokes. Both times it was a rainy, windy, everything damp kind of day, and re-entering got me in. Was it dampness or was it me, I don't know.Good luck with this lock. It's been a winner for me.

Very well. I ride in the rain and have kept it outide during rain. Battery is fine.

I am not an expert but...I would say Yes, it is "resistant" if raining...not if bike goes under water for any longer period. Hope this helps.

Hm, ive used it in the rain. It doesnt keep the bike dry. But also doesnt get soaked. Its not ideal for rain. Hope that helps.(get a 2-4 Layer cover-trust me)
