Is this weather proof? For example, can I attach it to the wall outside my window and leave it there if it rains?

We have two of these mounted outside the bedroom window and have had no problems so far. They've been rained on multiple times.

Best thing would be to close the window if the weather is really bad (like horizontal rain). Normal rainfall should not hurt it (it's mounted several inches away from the screen). It believe it will take some amount of precipitation but will probably not tolerate being doused with water. Frankly, I have never had it get soaked by rain. Not sure what 'storm guard' means but i thought that it had something to do with the plastic housing that covers the fan motor.

It is not water proof. Ours is under a gazebo roof that overhangs and no rain gets to it. But if the wind blows sideways, it will get wet. Hope this helps.

no, this is a entry level unit. not weather proof at all, but you can make a box for it so that its protected from the elements.

I rather not, unless you have it shield from the rain or when it is not raining. This item is not weather-proof.

I had it over my garage door and the 1st night it rained, water got into the battery compartment and motion sensor. I put it in a bowl of rice for a few days and it got most out to the point to where it would work again. I put a sealant around anywhere that i thought water could get in and it's been great ever since. It just doesnt look the greatest lol. So to answer your question, it isnt weather proof unless you make it that way. Hope i helped.

I do not know if it is "officially" weatherproof but mine got rained on last September (albeit light rain) and unit was not affected.

I dont know how well it would last outside its made of a laminate type material. Its super light weight. You could adhere to a wall easily.

No, your device is not protected. It just means that the mount is weather proof.

Not unless you have a way to protect it from the weather. It is not made of materials meant to withstand rain, etc.

There are screw holes on the feet so if you need to screw it down so it doesn't blow away then you can. Mine isn't secured down and it hasn't blown away. It pretty waterproof and heat resistant. I've used it during the rain and it wasn't a problem. Although, if the wind is blowing the rain from the side, then you will get wet, so we put up a curtain.

I wouldn't worry about an outside wall since the least bit of moisture will kill it. Mine lasted one day in the Florida humidity. Inside (and I don't know why you'd want it there since its solar) I'd imagine there's enough goop on it to make it stick. But yes even in the desert where this product might stand a chance of working its only adhesive and can easily come off. I would find a better product though.

That crossed my mind, and I always make sure rain is not in the forecast when I put it in my window. The item is $30. So I just use my common sense -- it's an electrical appliance, and if it's product description doesn't say it's waterproof, assume it isn't. As to what happens when it gets rained on, I would rather not experiment to find out.

No. Its not weather resistant. Plus its so quiet its not worth the purchase..

I have it on my wall but I never thought about putting it on a window... That's a good idea actually! I think it would look nice but would it stick?? Not sure.. Would humidity affect it?? I hope it works for you.

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

I use mine outside under the eaves and not exposed to rain,it is connected to the USB port. A friend of mine with an RV mounts it on the roof in a plastic bag to keep out the rain.I understand that it is supposed to be an indoor antenna.
