We live in he mid-west I remove the lights (we have 5) for the winter and replace them with pvc caps. Change them in the spring.

I live on the Oregon Coast ,on NETARTS BAY WHERE WE CAN EXPECT AS MUCH AS 90 INCHES OF RAIN A YEAR! Along with storms in the winter with up to 90 miles per hour winds. I bought 2 of these and they survived the first winter very well. even with little sunlight they remained lit all night, sometimes into the morning...Jim

I would think you would need at least 6-8 hours of daylight for it to get a good charge. It seems to do fine on cloudy or rainy days as long as it gets some sun for most of it. I live in Florida, so we don't generally have a ptoblem getting plenty of light for keeping it charged.

I can't say. We live in Missouri and have owned these since early July and they have worked well. Now that we are having cooler weather and more clouds and rain they still work but we've noticed they turn off after midnight and they used to stay on till dawn. So my guess would be that if they get enough sunlight they would turn on in the evening and stay lit till midnight or so, but I am not sure, they seem to recharge when cloudy but not enough to last all night. They look really nice whether on or off.

I don't know if they will work in the dead of winter. I still have mine turned on and so far it has been down to 19 F. They tell you not to leave the batteries in during real cold weather so when it get down a little more I will take the batteries out until early spring.

It should not be an issue. I am not sure what the cold rating is. It gets down to -20f here and they work fine.

Our signal is 20 miles away over flat land snow and wind affects it sometimes. If their is nothing between you and the tower (mountains) it may be possible.

Depending on how cold it could get I doubt it. Would cost a fortune in power.

I have not tried this yet. I will this winter. By concept it is supposed to... which is why I purchased it.

It depends on how cold the day is. I wouldn't count on it in the winter. In the summer it works great.

it has always worked for me - I'm in north east US and it was a brutal 2013- 2014 winter - the water never froze - making me and the birds very happy. just make sure you get the correct wattage extension cord.

We used our for two winter seasons and it work the second winter year just as well as the first... We kept it in the sealed package in side a closet in the house

Please disregard my "yes" answer! I hit the wrong button on accident. I am not sure if it will run in cold weather�.

It should but salt would probably have to be applied before it snows. It might be difficult to roll in more than a small covering of snow. Why don't you call Scotts (888) 270-3714?

Jay,My understanding is it will work as long as it can be sprayed in cold weather. I use an old Windex bottle with the "Stream" setting. I sprayed our shrubs in early winter and have not had any problem with the deer this year. You may want to brush off as much snow as possible before spraying. Good luck and Happy New Year from Northern Maine.Bill

I'm in MI and it worked perfectly throughout the past crazy cold winter! Should be no problem.

this unit needs to be installed inside and out of freezing weather conditions .

Not sure but we had a horrible winter last year with temperatures in the single digits and wind chills of below zero. It worked all winter.

I'm not sure if would work in cold areas. You'd have to contact the manufacturer. It works great though in normal tempered areas.

I can't see any reason this wouldn't work. It may cool down faster outside in winter than it would in the house. It may be counter productive if the temperature drops below freezing.

Not a problem. It works great in all weather. I live in Northern MN and it does get cold and it keeps working.
