Are these waterproof or at least suitable for saddle bag mounting on the lids

From installing these myself in my car, I CAN tell you that the positive and negative tabs are exposed. I would highly suggest against installing these in any marine/motorcycle/outdoor environment. These are good speakers but are not listed for marine (outdoor) use.

If they are outdoor, they should be waterproof, Right? But they don't see to be. All three that I ordered have quit working in the first week probably due to high humidity and some rain.

Im sorry i dont know, they are mounted inside my truck. but with the amount of space leading into the unit, i wouldnt trust it to be waterproof

I would think they would work fine as they are coated. I don't know how long they will last with sunshine and wet on the coating but I sure think they are strong and work great for keeping chip bags tightly closed

I don't know if they are "rain proof" but they are certainly "rain resistant." They seem to be sealed very well and there is a rain shield on the top of the camera. It will slide out to shield the lens from stray raindrops. I tried to mount my cameras where they would be protected from direct rain.

The covers are indeed waterproof. I have them covering some fabric furniture outside; however, as I mentioned in one of my reviews the larger covers are made with two or more pieces stitched together. I have seen leakage at the seams of some of these on the covers I have. This started occurring after the first Arizona summer (a few months after purchase). Temps get as high as 108 here so this may have contributed but days with high winds did thread the edge of the cover where the velcro attaches to the material causing holes there as well. Keep that in mind if you live in a windy area.

I mounted mine in an outdoor waterproof enclosure. Works great. Stays dry. Don't mount it outside without protection.

My father uses them on his KLR 650. It took a while to figure-out how to attach the straps to the motorcycle but they are waterproof and appear to work. I will know more later after the winter freeze when I can test them out properly in the Northeast.

No opportunity to test resistance to water or rain - yet. It sure *seems* like they would be. Materials appear to be impervious. Top flaps have long overlap. Suggest caution...don't carry anything delicate until they prove to be waterproof in riding conditions you may experience. One note: a couple weeks after new, one of the straps pulled completely off the bags. Two lower straps work OK. Just aggravating that brand new product comes apart so easily. We get what we pay for, eh?

I actually stamped in brass grommets and use paracord & plastic release buckles (all of which was cheep & easy to add). There are a couple of D-rings on the inside of the saddlebags, from the manufacturer. I hang my saddlebags over my trail-rack that is over my back tire. If you don't have a rack, these bags wouldn't really work.

I'm sure they are durable enough, however they are somewhat bulky. Compact 'backpacking' binoculars might be a better choice for your saddlebags.

I have a set mounted on my Jeep, they are waterproof, and should not have issues with getting wet.

fluid film or spray thompsons water seal on them. ( its not just for wood) it has kept my bike bell totally rust free when my other one which was the same exact one without the seal sprayed on rusted completely. Also if you go to ebay and search bike cover waterproof you will see some that have a picture of bikes and scooters on the cover. well those ones are great for bikes and scooters. they will crack in the sun after about 6 months though. for less than $10 cant beat it though.

They are not waterproof. Moisture gets in and the plastic gets cloudy and rust will develop around the magnets.

could be suitable, size is right but they are thin - if you need waterproof, consider cutting up a felt backed vinyl tablecloth

I don't think these were designed for underwater exploration I think they're more just saying they're waterproof for your vehicle but it wouldn't hurt to try
