Is this unit waterproof/resistant? Just want to make sure it won't get damaged if it starts raining.

I have this unit for almost a year, and I have been under some showers, even heavy showers and I had no problem, it's really water resistant!

It is definitely not waterproof. I've had it in the rain with no problems. And I believe the manufacturer claims it is water resistant.

Hello Thomas... Actually I Can say that ABSOLUTELY the unit is waterproof, in my city rains maybe 250 days of the year hehehehehe and works perfectly!!!

I have not used it n a heavy downpour. I've been in light rain situations and had no problems. The plugs all fit snugly. I'd be comfortable saying water resistant more than waterproof. That said, I've had mine (two units) nearly a year and have been very happy with the units.

I am not sure if the unit is waterproof, I am guessing it has some water resistance built in but I am guessing if it was they would say it on the packaging.

If by that you mean "is it water proof", almost nothing electrical that isn't sealed is safe for outdoor use. On the other hand it is ruggedly built with an on-off switch to turn on-off electrical power. But I wouldn't leave it outside in the rain.

Its a sealed unit so it should be. haven't been in the rain yet though to know for sure.

It is not "waterproof" - the manufacturer calls it "water resistant". It does come with a clear plastic (vinyl) rain cover for use outdoors.

I do not know if it is "officially" weatherproof but mine got rained on last September (albeit light rain) and unit was not affected.

No. it's not water-resistant. I rode it under heavy rains and had not problem at all. As long as it's not submerged in the water and should be ok.

It is not waterproof or resistant, but it is very well made. I have used it outdoors many times without incident. Humidity is not a problem, I live in South Florida, but I would not want it to get soaking wet.

Obviously it's made to be mounted out side. I don't think it could withstand constant water exposure but occasional moisture, wind blown rain, doesn't bother it. It's battery powered so if you are concerned about a shock factor there is none.

I'd say water resistant. I hunted out of it in a steady rain and maybe only a drop or two made it inside. There are tiny little pinholes around some of the seams. Not a major issue. I can't speak for a downpour, that may be a different story.

I only used it when it was raining lightly so I believe it is water resistant but not sure if it's water proof.

Hi Rob, As far as I know I left mine out for about a week in the rain and I didn't have any problems. I only had mine up for a couple weeks for a party so it was just temporary. Hopefully this helps?

I've used this product in a semi-outdoor setting. I definitely would avoid exposure to water, rain, moisture,etc. Its not a sealed unit, nor is it water proof-but it still creates a great water effect.

I havent had a chance to use it when it has been raining or tried soaking it in water :-). But it looks to be waterproof or water resistant though.... If it has some issues i will post it up here on that...

Wouldn't say it is waterproof, it's more water resistant. I haven't had it in the rain for long periods but did accidentally spill water on it, the contents got damp. Hope the info was helpful!

The unit is weather resistant so it should be fine in normal rain, but it is not water-proof, so it obviously shouldn't be submerged.

Yes, Unit is water proof! I have one on my trolling unit up from and another mounted on my console, in all types of weather - haven't had any problems!
