It depends on the model and brightness, but many run for around 5–10 hours at full brightness and much longer when dimmed, often enough for several evenings at a low, dinner-party glow. Check the stated run time and charge time on the product page before buying, as they vary widely.
Many can. Look for an IP44 rating or higher for garden tables, terraces and balconies, which protects against splashes and light rain. Bring them indoors during heavy rain and charge them inside. Lamps without an IP rating should stay indoors. Rubber charging covers keep ports dry, and a damp lamp should be dried fully before it is plugged in to charge.
