Probably hundreds out there, but I wondered if anyone knew of a model
that is reasonably weatherproof.

Are any of the transformers for garden lighting weatherproof?

Need about 1.5 amps at 12v DC.

Cheers,

Tridonic-Atco below ground transformers are plastic and epoxy cased

However, these are only AC, not rectified.
