How water resistant is the base unit? Ok for boat ?

The base unit is a little black box that doesn't have the tightest seal so I wouldn't put it too close to wet areas. Probably best if you put it in a cupboard or fasten it under something.

No it is not water resistant. However corrosion might be more of an issue. You can try to put the module in a balloon and zip tie it so it is sealed.

no this relay would not like water, if you were putting it under a dash that would not allow it to get soaked would probably be alright. Then again it could be put in something that is water proof and still do the job. Hope this helps.

I'm sure it's well resistant, but I wouldn't bet on PROOF without some additional epoxy covering. You could give it a shot ... It's not an expensive test. The water will likely interfere with the wireless signal if it is submerged, though. Probably will make the device very hard to use, unless you're just talking about weather resistance for outdoor use. As with all projects of that nature, try to give them a little protection from the brunt of the rain force, but they will handle the splash back without a problem.

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.

I use mine on my kayak. I have never submerged it, but it gets splashed some. So far no problems.

Hi Ryan, I have only used our boats in a bay. With a little current the boat holds up well. I would be a bit concerned with the the loop that holds the oars with stronger current. Otherwise, I am very happy with the boats. Sorry I can't help you...

Water resistant maybe. I wouldn't submerge it oh expose it to excessive water.

Thank you David. I haven't completely figured out where I want to put it on the pontoon. How well is the unit watertight? If the unit was mounted close to the water do you think it would get any water inside? Thanks again.

Yes, it is water resistant but I do not think it is waterproof. I leave mine outside during rain and it seems unaffected. I would not submerge it in water, however. The technical specs in the manual say it is operational between -20 C to 60 degrees C and between 5% - 90% humidity.

It's not what you would called water proof but it is designed to be in marine environment and exposed to saltwater. It will hold up to being wet without corroding. It is a very nice fuse box and is holding up great on my boat in saltwater and gets wet and stays wet for long periods. The cover is just to protect from impact and covers the wire lugs if you don't have covers on connecter.

If you are referring to being water resistant. Mine hasn't been in anyway near water. I will think it's not water resistant.

I always launch from the bay or inlet when I fish. I launch other times from the beach so I know what you mean by very wet. I am not sure it would hold up to that kind of use/abuse. There are some more open connections like the battery that I would be concerned with. It is a good unit and I am sure there is a way to make it more water/ wave proof. It depends on your yak.

Mine was not waterproof. I have it mounted on my boat on T-Top well above water. Rain easily gets inside and you can see moisture. It still works, but not for unprotected outdoor use without additional sealing. It does put out a lot of light, but for .10 of silicone it could have been waterproof and much better.

Wanna say water resistant. ... yes. I have them mounted on my waverunner & so far have been working great

I bought another. Unit is more than durable 4 my use. I take into mountain lake above 9000'. Been in Gail winds that were 2 much & able to get 2 shore. Oars r long enough but have there limit in strong wind. Boat will last years and is very functional for play, fishing, & travel on calm water.

I don't know for sure, but it seems that it is somewhat water tight so that it wouldn't ruin the unit.

The head unit is not waterproof. Speakers can get water on them and still be fine from what I've done getting in and out of the boat, but none of this stuff is waterproof.

I think it is good for wet weather. It is IP68 rated, which means it is completely sealed and can run while continuously submerged in water. I have had mine for 7 months, in Hawaii where it rains very often, and so far have not seen any rust or signs of trouble.
