Is the control unit waterproof?

I don't believe it is waterproof. It can probably handle getting splashed with water but not immersed.

Not water proof. May be used in vehicles or in areas that have some water vapor but can't be placed in water.

yes, it is waterproof. Mine is outside on the patio and exposed to all weather.

Yes it appears to be waterproof. Been out in the rain unprotected, still works.

no. neither piece will be unless you make the in-line water proof. stick the remote in a zip lock bag if your worried about water on it.try plastic-dip for tools on the in-line receiver.the ends are open so water will pass thru them. you could try to seal those to make it water proof.its in heat shrink tube and plastic zip strips on the wires only.

the truck is waterproof however the speed controller is NOT waterproof. I've actually ran into this problem.I was just running through puddles and I short circuited my speed controller.

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.

I don't think it is waterproof but I have used both parts of the unit outside with no problems.

No but you can easily put a small toggle switch on unit, if you are using in wet conditions make sure switch is weatherproof. Hope this helps..great little unit..

Yes the electronics are included and the speed control is water resistant/water proof.

My understanding is that the internal part of the switch is waterproof. I have mine exposed to the weather, and so far no problems. Hope this helps.

This particular unit is not waterproof. The imw575, which is a bit more expensive, is waterproof.

I agree with 'water resistant'. Looks like both of them can take a splash or light rain but I wouldn't 'submerge' the controller, or install the receiver were a lot of road mist or natural rain would hit it constantly.As others have stated, a little silicone will seal the ends of the receiver heat shrink better. If you leave the controller out in the rain, well, bad on you... :)

No. Control box and/or lights are NOT water proof. I've tried sealing them... but the materials used in their manufacturing and shipped are not par, for upgrades.

I have never used it wet or allowed the main unit to get wet. I doubt that it is water proof. My recommendation is to not get it wet, but other may have had no problem. Better safe than sorry.

This unit does not work anywhere so it does not matter if it is waterproof!

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.

Thank you for your question! The receiver collars for this Innotek System are waterproof.
