A code of IP57 would've indicated protection against submersion of up to 1 meter.

Too bad. I was going to mount a 52" at the bottom of my hot tub!

What's the point? Who watches porn outdoors? The neighbors would complain. Well, some of them.

50$ for a mobile a/c unit from Costco. 100$ to get a few outdoor paintings, $1,6000 for a 55inch Samsung that does 120hz. $1-50 For the alcohol of your choice, I prefer Heineken.

Savings: $4,730 on the 42 inch, and $12,220 on the 55inch unit.

Mounting a TV outdoors is nothing new. Runco didn't invent this. People have been doing this for years with other brands of flat panel TV's.

Someone would come and steal it before I even finished mounting it...

So... they took a television,and just put it in a water tight case?

Could kinda see the appeal of this if you're have a bbq for the big game but you could just bring out a regular tv and make sure you bring it back into the house before it gets rained on...

How does it vent heat?

How would it fare in humidity? As in mounted in my bathroom across from the toilet? goodbye crossword books!

 

[teknomedic]

think I'd rather mount a TV in a window and invest in some out door speakers

If its not 100% water-proof, theres probably vents/fans on the bottom of it. That way rain can't get in, but air can still be circulated.

Runco is a high-end brand dealing in high-end home theater and large venue projection. Definitely not something you will see at Best Buy. The cheapest projector they sell is $5000, and the most expensive is $250,000.
