Will this work outside? Or will it be too diluted? I was wondering about putting it on my front porch for halloween to make it look a little more creepy for trick or treaters.

too diluted,fog stream very light and short spurts of fog, larger wattage fogger is needed for exterior use

the only way this would work is if you kept it running constantly (which you can't due to heat/reheat times) or if there was absolutely no wind or breeze present. this unit does well in smaller enclosed spaces, but is definitely NOT capable of enhancing outdoor events at all. if you gave trick or treaters their treats in a garage setup, this could work though...hope that helps

i guess it would depend on the wind, but its more than enough to add the creep factor in an outdoor setting if the air is relatively still. made a demo video for you and anyone else who wants to see it in action on u tube, search channel drifting_is_fun

If a lot of wind is blowing the smoke will just be blown away. It is better used inside.

It will work anywhere, but make sure it will not get any rain, since it is an electric machine... probably windy weather does not help either...

Hi Irene,Sadly this product did not work outside to thwart my neighbors cat who got into using my patio flower boxes. I then tried orange oil, pricey did not work. I ended up fencing these areas. A friend has your same inside problem and put tin foil down and little by little her cat is coming back to the litter box.

No,it is not intended for outdoor use, however if it is placed where it will not be directly exposed to the elements, it should be fine. If you place it under a porch, gazebo, or similar protection, so that it isn't soaked by a rainfall, there should be no worries.

I contacted the company earlier and they said that it is NOT meant for outdoors. Thanks for all the answers.

I only used it outside against the foundation of the house. When I applied it it made me dizzy! EcoSmart has another very mild product but I haven't found it yet sold OTC--the pest companies use it for the inside if you ask for "natural/organic".

I dont see why it wouldnt work outside BUT not what it is made for. Light is extremely bright so might effect neighbors and I would worry about it being damaged or stolen. Great light tho!

I have never used it outside. I watch that show as well =) It's a great product but perhaps trying to sprinkle pepper or lemon rinds will help. Best of luck to you.

If you paint it, it works for outdoor. I used Rustoleum outdoor paint and it's been on my patio for over a year.

Basically, they are saying not to use it on a light that is out of doors, in the weather. I would imaging they are concerned that fog, mist, dew or rain would eventually enter into the module; and short it out, causing a potential fire. If you are planning to use the spot light outside, where it is unprotected (i.e.; under the eves of the porch, mounted indside an enclosed porch, etc.), you may want to consider something that is weather sealed (water tight).

I believe it could be used outdoors...it's not s/s but the chrome-type surface should be resistant to short term deterioration with the possible exception of ocean coast areas. I've found it to be a great product for indoor use and intend to purchase several more for gifts...I may borrow your idea and hang one or two outside in the patio.

It does splash a little on the high setting. I used it inside a plastic cauldron in my wood table for Halloween. It worked fine but I wouldn't leave it unattended.

I didn't use it for outdoors. For outdoors I prefer Patio Paint. I really recommend "Patio Paint" for outdoors or Martha Stewart paints.

I bought it to use indoors. I'm not sure even if it is properly protected if it is intended for outdoors. I have transformers for some outdoor low voltage landscape/deck lighting that are definitely made for the outside. Not sure if I was much help, but good luck with your project!

Mine is a question too: product description states the product shouldn't be used around home/pets/ children, I see it's ultraviolet light sourced, would the ultraviolet be the danger source enough to discourage use on a back porch where flies continuously buzz 9 months a year??

It kkck butt for Halloween! Combine it with dry ice for a low lying effect. In house it will fill your room up amd set off smoke detectors, thats how good it.is....

The is not labeled for outdoor. I'd suspect the exterior coating would become brittle and break down under UV and weather exposure.

I believe there was a caution on the bottle about using it when it was windy out... but I was drilling holes in stumps and roots under ground, injecting it into the holes, and then covering everything back up, so I wasn't worried about the weather. And I did it in the fall. I'm in Colorado, so extremely wet weather isn't much of a concern here.
