Can the 16X32 RGB LED MATRIX being used for Outdoor applicat

Post by arduinoengineer »

We want to install the 16x32 RGB LED Matrix panel outside of the building (outdoor) but we are not sure whether or not it is water/sun proof and can display clearly even against the sunlight.

If you have the more suitable product please let us know.

any recommendation are welcome.

Thank you

Waterproof? no. Sun-proof? Probably for a time but there are no tests to quantify this. Be seen in the sun? That would depend on too many parameters to state. I would get one and test it in your environment to see how well it performs.
