It says waterproof, can I use it during my diving trip?

Dear Callistus, I've had mine for several months and it's a good, reliable flashlight, however I have never used it under water. The rubber O rings that are an integral part of the construction of this particular light would not keep your unit dry because it was not constructed to endure the kind of pressure you expose it to. Every 3 feet you descend, the pressure doubles so you do the math. Unless a flashlight manufacturer will clearly state and guarantee the unit will operate at X atmospheres deep, I HIGHLY suggest you not use this unit for underwater operation.

no. This case is not water proof. It is completely exposed all around. There is a hole for the camera. I would not recommend taking this case underwater.

I don't know if it will float, I've just used it for bird watching. But if you look at the ad for it on Amazon it says (at the end of bullet point two) "not recommended for submersion or scuba diving". To be "waterproof" it should be fairly watertight...you would think, but then they don't recommend submersing it in water. I think if it does float to some degree it may be OK given that its "once in a while". To be "idiot proof", I would just secure it to a lanyard and keep it around my neck. It's your call.

The camera itself is not waterproof, but its case is. So as long as you have it in its case, then yes it is totally waterproof. Has it gotten wet without its case? Ya I've accidentally splashed it a time or two, if that happens I immediately turn it off and check to make sure I didn't get the internal parts wet. So try not to get water on it when its outside its case. I've taken it free diving in its case to depths deeper than 60 feet and, it can go down about 200 feet.

Yes, this item is indeed waterproof as long as you make sure it has a tight seal. Thank you

Well it's waterproof I tested it but you may want to read up on the depths. It's a great case.

I think 'water resistant' is the proper description. I would not take it into the bathtub with me. There is a rubberized plug provided with the Boom that covers the jack and usb port. I assume it protects them from entry of moisture but again, I haven't triedd to drown the thing and wouldn't advise testing the limits. It's not for scuba diving, but I think it will survive an afternoon by the pool, on wet grass, or in a light rain.

The one I have is not waterproof. They do make waterproof models. They define waterproof as getting less than 8 drops of water in the safe when it submerged in water 2 inches over the top of the safe for 1 hour. So don't plan on taking it scuba diving.

This is waterproof but it is not recommended that you submerge the device under water.

According to seidio all functions will operate on your phone with their case. Not sure of depths and how long water proof. Call them. The company is very accommodating and will answer your questions. I don't believe it's ment to be used for long dives but I could be completely wrong about this. Good luck!

That's a good question. I don't believe that it's water tight. So, in the short term, you could use it for scuba diving, but it would likely get water inside and possibly rust or otherwise not last very long after. That said, getting some great shots underwater might be worth the cost of the item.

I only used it while snorkeling and riding a jet ski. When sealed properly it was perfect in those conditions. Perhaps you should contact the manufacturer with your question, because I do not know how water pressure during diving would affect the seal.

As to raining on it or splashing on it, yes it is waterproof. As to submerging it under water, no, because it would leak at the zipper. It's not SEALED.

I don't think so. You can buy diving belts that are waterproof. The weights in the belt look like they're made of iron. Good luck.

Yes it's waterproof but it will not work if you submerge deep down into the water according to the manual. But I use it for snorkeling and it works just fine

I wouldn't suggest scuba diving with it, but yes it is water proof. I have left mine in the rain and never had a drop in it. This a a true Pelican Case with a backpack built around it. It's worth the money.

No, it's not waterproof. If you must keep it dry, wrap it in a water-proof garbage bag.
