Dedolight, waterproof?

[Anonymous]

I’ve just bought one Dedolight (becuase its all I can afford) and I have a shoot in a misty environment. I have a raincover for the camera but should I risk my new as yet unused Dedolight? If the job goes well I’ll be able to buy a second light and eventually I’ll have a decent lighting kit.

So, Dedolight and water, would you mix em’?

Thank you.

Why not get a raincover to put over your dedolight?

I had no idea they made them. I’ll look for one. I presumed lights would get to warm to be covered.

No look with covers I’m afraid. I’ve read a few comments about people dunking Dedolights in tanks of water! can anyone put any truth to this fact?

is there no information in the owners manual or thier marketing materials on thier website?

I’ve shot outdoors in inclement weather using a ten by ten foot trade show styled tent and set up lights under the tent canopy to keep them dry… I suppose an umbrella attached to the lightstand might work as well…

Anything, clear, plastic (like a poncho),

I think would work.
