I think they mean indoor OR outdoor use only (not both at the same time, ie. through a window/door). Just the way it's worded it's funny.

I think they mean indoor OR outdoor use only (not both at the same time, ie. through a window/door). Just the way it's worded it's funny. We do both with outs though... We don't have very many electrical outlets outside (I can only think of one at the moment) so we always have 'em come through the window... | |
