So I'm (finally) nearing the end of my conversion, and my mother is buying me mezuzah scrolls + cases for my birthday. Two for the outside doors and one for my bedroom (the rest of the house is shared). I found a place where I can get scrolls for not too much, but I am having lots of anxiety about weatherproof cases. I live in Canada and both outdoor mezuzot would be exposed to the elements (no storm door). That's a lot of variation in heat and cold, moisture, humidity, etc. Self-sticking mezuzot are out because I don't trust them to stick, but those happen to be the ones I trust best for weatherproofing (basically the clear tubes).
So, advice on weatherproof cases? Will 'weather resistant' cut it, or should I go with the stick-on tube and just be vigilant about making sure the sticky still sticks? I have an anxiety disorder and this is kind of triggering me all over the place (conversion anxiety, very expensive item getting ruined anxiety, etc). Help?
