Can these bulbs be used in outdoor landscape fixtures that presently have 40 W incandescent bulbs?

The box states: "do not use where directly exposed to water". It also specifies that they should not be used in a completely enclosed fixture.I am sure you can find an LED replacement bulb someplace that is suitable for your landscape fixtures though.

I have one in my front door pendant light that hangs about 10' up with bottom of fixture blocked so light comes out the sides only. I personally would like it to be brighter out there, but it works.

Not sure, I currently am using a 60 watt bulb for my outdoor front porch fixture that is enclosed and under cover. Also in a lamp in an interior room in the house. Works great with a regular light bulbs of 60 watt.

Yes indeed. But they are candelabra bulbs. The treads are like the large xmas bulbs. Hope you know what I mean. They are only rated for 40 w but I have 60w bulbs in there now! Believe me, the 40 w are plenty strong, but yes they can

I use them in my landscape lights. These are sealed to be fairly weatherproof.

The bulb works with 12 V DC only not with any AC voltage. You mention that your outdoor low voltage landscape lighting is AC if that is right the bulb will not work. I believe that you are wrong, all landscape lighting are DC,then the bulb will work. Recheck your outdoor system and if is DC (not AC) you are good to go !

Dear Sir,I use these light bulbs for all my outside landscape lighting without a dimmer switch, you may have to ask your local hardware store and take a bulb with you.

The bulbs are made of pretty thick glass. I don't see any reason they wouldn't work outdoors.

i don't know. I put these bulbs into standard 110V fixtures wired with 24VAC low voltage landscape lighting. I didn't try using a dimmer.

All of mine are being used indoors but I think they would work as well outdoors as any incandescent or CFL bulb would.

They are rated for indoor/outdoor use. And enjoy! They are fantastic bulbs.

Yes, but I would only recommend using a 10k 55w bulb. If you use a 35 bulb, the color will be different and fade within a couple of months.

I would say yes, they give a nice light, better than the rather yellow CFL versions. I would have said it was more like 50W rather than a 40W equivalent. A nice light

Hi Becky, I have not used for outdoor use so I am not sure. Follow the maximum wattage and maximum voltage for your fixture, it should work unless it is exposed to the elements, rain, etc. or go back to your fixture company customer service, ask them for help.

I don't think so. I am using them in outdoor stringlights. You should ask the seller. This seller provides amazing customer service, and is very attentive.

Yes, they can be used outside provided they are installed in a weatherproof, waterproof enclosure. I use them as accent landscape lighting to light the peaks of my home and they look great. Not to bright but not too dark.

I agree with your first answer. I used the bulbs in my outdoor low voltage lighting. It's a warm bright white light without any of the concerns you expressed. The 5 watts rating is a cost saving and the consistent brightness of all the lights is great.

Yes. They're regular light bulbs and can be used in appropriate light fixtures. Just ensure that your fixture is rated for outdoor use.
