How long is the pouch water proof for? I've seen other water proof bags say up to 1 hour. How about this one?

I spend the whole day at Discovery Cove in the water with no problems at all. It is made of vinyl so it should last for days if not longer. The only real complaint I had with this case is not really the fault of the case and that was I couldn't use the touch screen underwater. Since the GS3 doesn't have hardware buttons to take pictures I could only shoot video underwater. I hope that helps a bit for ya!

I've only been in the water with this bag for about 2 hours and my phone turned out dry and ok. The pouch itself seems very secure and utilizes a zipper and multiple folds to keep the water out. You shouldn't have problems being in the water for an extended amount of time with this pouch.

I was under 4 -6 feet of water in and out snorkeling for 6 hours but the longest it stayed consecutively under water was about 30 mins

Never had problems with duration when using underwater .. Used it for a behind the scenes underwater shoot I recently did and we were in the water for 8 hrs no problem..

Around 40 hours is all I would use it. You should be able to tell when to replace. I keep mine in the bag and sealed when not in use.

This pouch is very convenient, but it is really for short term use- maybe 3-4 hours in the summer heat. I might last longer in cooler conditions.

I just tested it by pouring a little bit water on it from my kitchen sink. The water flowed across it. Nevertheless, I don't consider this bag waterproof. If water spills on it accidentally, and u wipe it off quick, your laptop will be safe... I think there's vulnerability around the zipper. But I gotta say this: "It is a solid bag". I love mine

The Bag is not made of waterproof material. It will slowly drain out but the process make take several days.If you are not going to have it very long and it might rain, cover it with a waterproof tarp.

I would classify this bag as moderately water resistent. It will stand up to a brief rain shower 15 min or so. It is far from being waterproof.Steve

it takes two secs to wipe it down with a towel. I don't know of any water proof bags that big but bed bath and beyond . com sells a laundry bag back pack that is the perfect size for transporting it and is CHEAP like $10

Assault pack is considered a 3 day pack. Having said that it depends on what you pack; some people seem to thinf a 72 hour bag should hold whatever you MIGHT need ever! lol. I packed it for comparison against a blackhawk Titan hydration bag. held everything just fine. make sure you get (imho) the molle accessory pouch and the hydration system. wont have room for sleeping bag but you could carry poncho liner and a tarp. very nice system, better than the ilbe assault bag which was one step removed from a grocery bag

Our bag is outside has been filled once since purchased, holds up great. Never leaked, used daily by 3-5 people. It is kept in the shade, but does get wet in the rain. Hope this helps.

I don't know scientifically the answer to any of these questions. I have only had mine for a couple months. Presumably as long as the seal integrity maintains and the O2 permeability of the bag is non-existent, it should last a long time.

From Safe-T-Proof's website I found this. Does not list how much the bags of water hold and the photo doesn't show 12 pouches so take this with a grain of salt: (1) Large backpack, (4) latex gloves, (2) hooded ponchos, (2) 12 hour snap lights, (12) packs of purified water, (2) 2400 calorie food bars, 36 piece essential first aid kit, (2) dust masks, (2) Tissue Packs, (1) whistle w/ lanyard, (2) Thermal space blankets.

It depends on the size of the bag. Not long at all. I love this device. I have saved money by using it. You should play with it to get used to using it as with anything new. Ive found it to be worth having.

I'd say at least a month; probably more. I have two adult females and my current bag has already lasted considerably longer than that.

Just wait till it uses all the fluid. A little goes a long way. Full it lasted me around 26hrs. Periodicly taking it out to get real hot then back in the bag.

The bags themselves are waterproof, but I would suggest you review proper sandbagging techniques, with proper overlap. They will certainly keep water out, but you'll need to make sure they are laid correctly.
