Outdoor Use of SwitchLincs

Does anyone have any experience with using SwitchLincs outdoors?

 

Here's what Smarthome says:

 

Use only indoors or in an outdoor rated box.

 

The box I am intending to use is an outdoor box and is currently used to house a non-Insteon dimmer, which worked great, until I replaced the entire circuit with an InLineLinc and plan to repurpose the switch wires for use with a SwitchLinc, if possible.

 

I live in Georgia and it gets pretty hot out there!

I've used an ICON Relay on my dock for more than 5 years. It is in a weather resistant box with a hinged cover to access the switch. The foam seal on the hinged door has worked well. Probably exceeds operating range at times (NC) but I've had not trouble.

I use several outside, but protected from direct exposure to any precipitation, wind, or sun. Temperatures range from -15 to 100.
