Is this radio waterproof/water resistant? It doesn't say anything in the product description.

I believe there is actual writing on the face plate that says 'submersible'.

resistant, I have hit it with a hose while cleaning, seems like a good buy. I use it 30 miles off shore salt water.

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!

I don't know about waterproof, my issue was I couldn't hear with mine the company did refund my money. I bought 2 for birthday gifts was disappointed ,you get what you pay for.

I would say its very water resistant not waterproof. I have it mounted under my back bumper for camping. Its been there a year and works fine. The inside of the unit shows little sign of corrosion. The spring lid snaps shut and holds tight.

No, IR receiver is NOT waterproof. If your planning to use it outdoor be sure to seal it against rain, flood or direct hit of water. When you seal it, make sure the antenna is not hidden, remote signal is that strong.

Haven't ride the helmet through rain yet because the unit will be damaged from the water... But I have rode through heavy downpour rain with my other helmets that I rotate from time to time, just not this one because of the Bluetooth. I believe direction says its not waterproof.

No it is water resistant. But mine never stopped working and I was out in a thunderstorm for 4 hours wearing it. It's about as close to waterproof that you can get.

I can't answer this from my usage, but the Amazon product description does not indicate that it is waterproof.

I don't know for sure either way but I really doubt it is water resistant or water proof. I would contact the manufacturer support to be certain.

I dont think that the speaker is water proofThe end of the radio is open to the rain.

Waterproof might be a stretch, I would say water resistant or splash proof. Its a great radio for us as a backup on our large sailboat. Probably not a good choice on a kayak or jet ski.

I have not submerged it in water completely but my instincts tell me no. It is extremely drop and dirt friendly. But to say it is %100 perfect waterproof I think would be a stretch. The company website says it is but I still wouldn't put it IN water. It is definitely splash proof and a quick dip or rain won't hurt it. So if you have it clipped to your pack or somewhere where it won't always be in water I think you'd be ok. If I had the money I would test it out but I'm not that interested to put the radios life at risk. Hope this helps!

I could not find anything that clears states if it is water proof or water resistant. However, it is made from 100% polyester material, which many consider to be water resistant.

I have had this for quite a few years (still a great sound) but I wouldn't put it in an area where it would get wet. When i purchased this I don't remember any mention of water resistance; it was just advertised as a speaker for laptops and desktops. This doesn't mean it isn't water resistant but I don't see any kind of gasket around the battery (4AAA) compartment...it also comes with a transformer type electrical cord.
