If you want an all weather lamp that will last for years this is only an IP44 you should go for and IP5X. (X standing for any number 1- 7). If you are not familiar with IP code just search IP code ratings.

It depends on where you are positioning it,if it exposed to wind and rain this will probably fail after a few months.
I would buy a Steinel sensor and connect it to the flood light without a sensor. A bit more expensive but you get a guarantee
I've tried the cheaper options from ebay and the have all failed over the winter .

Actually Mr Mac, if you wanted weather/waterproof you would want an IPX5 or above
The first number is dust rating, second number is water
That's another excellent find. Don't usually get good deals in Maplin! None in stock anywhere near me though

Sorry I got the digits the wrong way around YES IPX5 or above (second digit).
Anyway my point is if you want a lamp to last you need a high IP rating, so anyone reading this will hopefully now know what to look for and have the choice of "do I buy as it is cheap or do I look for a high(er) IP rating" your call now you know there is a standard. Most people would not have know what the IP44 means, in my eyes not good for a heavy winter.
