Battery Powered Lights outside?


I’ve got some Christmas lights outside, solar and mains powered, is it OK to put battery powered lights out and have the battery pack covered in plastic?

Yes, I did it all the time. The plastic should be a vinyl, like a clear plastic foot wiping rug. Putting the battery pack in a baby wipes plastic box and sealing it with tape works also. Cut a small slot for the wire at the top, put the battery pack inside, close the lid, and seal off with tape.
