I read the directions and several post about the Arlo Q not being rated for outdoor use; I would assume mainly for it not being waterproof. I was wondering if it would be alright to utilize on my porch that is completely covered and no water would hit the camera?

The only issue I can think of would be humidity during summer months. Condensating moisture could be an issue although the warm nature of the camera may prevent that from happening.

as mentioned above...

I have run it under a covered porch for a while, no issues ( adapter for power in elec box under nearby light )

But I would wonder in the winter about blowing snow which could hit the camera... water intrusion
