Neville,
I've been leaving my HEQ5pro mount outside all the time, for the past ten years. Winter, Summer, rain or shine.....
It's protected by three layers: An old towel, a black garbage bag and a "PolyTuf" Patio chair cover (Bunnings).
The PolyTuf usually lasts about three years before it starts to crack and disintegrate (hence the black garbage bag)
No issues with the drives or other electronics, but you have to occasionally clean the ports and connectors.
The paint and stainless steel legs seem to handle the weather OK, but the powder coating on the feet...well that deteriorated and came off a few years ago. I did mean to re-paint them, but never got round to it.
