not waterproof... don't take it under water. it's good for riding in the rain though, all openings are sealed with rubber. ie the button is rubber, the USB charge opening has a rubber stopper, and the battery opening has a rubber seal.

It's generally not safe to ride in the rain. So while I'm happy to respond - my experience is limited. I have been caught in the rain, with the light, and it worked perfectly. It's important to note that I was too aggressive with the rubber USB cover the second or third time I charged the light... and it popped off. My plan was to replace it - but I've been just too busy to get to that "C" list item. In spite of the exposed USB, the light re-charged flawlessly. This is a good value - several friends purchased the same light based on my experience and first hand observations. The charge lasts a long time and the unit is powerful, but not bulky. Good luck and be safe out there. It's generally not safe to ride in the rain. So while I'm happy to respond - my experience is limited.

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.

Yes it is water proof. But its very tough with the usb charging port cover. Its is kind of a very soft gel which will keeps coming out of the port, no matter how properly you push into the port it will come out for sure. I lost that cover as its came out during my ride. And now my light unit is no more water proof.

I don't think it is waterproof, although my son has used it in the rain and not had a problem.

It is definitely water /rain resistant, but I would hesitate to call anything waterproof that does not advertise as such. It is a fantastic backpack!

I haven't used it with rain, I use it as a sun protection, I'm sorry! But I think it should not be good for heavy rain since it is not plastic. ..

No, it is water resistant, not water proof. It can handle rain and sweat but not being submerged

I don't know for sure but in my opinion it is not water tight; I wouldn't expose it to rain.

It's not waterproof. You could only use it outside if it was completely protected from the rain .

Mine has not been soaked, but it has withstood rain just fine.But, if you have any doubt I would go ahead and treat it with a water protector.

If I'm not mistaken, I believe I did read that somewhere that it is but I cannot find the documentation I had with it. However, I believe it would be waterproof in a light rain. I do not believe it would be water proof in a heavy rain. It also does not have a floor in it so when the ground around it gets wet, that would eventually seep into the "dry" ground area under the "tent".

I've used it in the rain with no problems. I wouldn't stick it under water or anything, but if it gets some water on it it should be fine.

Not water resistant at all if it's left outside. Perhaps can withstand a light rain moving from one place to another but that's it. I think you could help it a little with water proofer like what you use on tents, shoes, etc but that's just for a light protection.

I have used it in a driving rainstorm for more than 6 hours with no issue so I would have to say yes it is water resistant

It is touted as "rain resistant" NOT rain proof nor water proof. We keep ours on the front porch which is open to blowing rain and no problems. I think if one left it out in a 2 or 3 inches of rain day it could be affected. So No its not waterproof, just water resistant per the manufacturers instructions.

Hi Rach, yes it is water resistant to only certain extend but not totally water proof and it does not come with a rain cover.

It is indeed rainproof. We have our's attached to a tree along the driveway and have had no trouble with the rain.

It is not waterproof or resistant, but it is very well made. I have used it outdoors many times without incident. Humidity is not a problem, I live in South Florida, but I would not want it to get soaking wet.
