Is the remote waterproof also
1099707
Unfortunately I was unable to find anything in the paperwork stating it is waterproof. The camera comes with a waterproof case that has buttons for operation, and the remote is definitely water resistant if not waterproof, it would not be effected by rain but I am not sure if it is submersible.

I hope so. I have it fastened around part of my shotgun to easily activate the camera. I am hunting in No. Penna. for turkey and the weather has been very wet. So far so good. As for the camera, mounted upside down on my forward barrel, this is my second returned first several components failed and really good experience with people in Quebec getting a free replacement. Second camera failing similar to first. Cant download to TV. This is their first generation and cheaply built with many flaws. Anything beyond 25 yds. is unacceptably indecernable as a hunting video on any game.They indicated an advanced version is due out June !st with zoom and what improvements I am not sure. I will try and negotiate the return of my current replacement and pay an upgrade once I see what they have improved. Camera is supposed to transmit pictures correctly on TV even with mine being mounted upside down on the barrel of my turkey gun. It did at first but now all is upside down when played back. Initial camera charging port broke loose and dropped inside the body,thus unusable. The start stop button also failed in a similar manner. Like my current one the original HDMI port is broken and pushed inside the housing. This all happened simply while learning to use the camera. Remote needs to be able to start the camera as well as then turning it on and off. And the new model due out must allow The zoom function to be controlled remotely also Not sure how you will know how much zoom you actually activate. Basically I don't have much hope for X-Cels product unless they make substantial improvements. I am willing to give it a try if it does become much more costly and they make a much sturdier product with features a hunter needs.

Both the collar and the remote are waterproof. Even if the cover comes off the charging port it's still waterproof. My dog swims with his on all the time and we've never had a problem.

I haven't done underwater shooting, but when attached to the GoPro Hero 2 camera, the WiFi backpack fits into the GoPro's waterproof casing. So, logic says "Yes," it would be waterproof. By the way, I think the WiFi capability is great for remote shooting & have been using it a lot. Additionally, it is easier to work the camera's controls from the remote (I use my Android phone or an iPad), than it is to work the manual controls on the camera.

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

I would not recommend this remote. It worked horribly for me and customer service was completely non-responsive. That said, our remote was on the counter when a pipe broke in our house and water poured on it for a good portion of the day. It never worked again. I do not think it is water tight.

I am not exactly sure if it is waterproof because i have not intentionally put water on the console. However, the radio is installed in a mounting box to keep it out of the weather and the speakers are just mounted in the open. I have not experienced any problems with them even though the speakers sit in the weather everyday.

I am not an expert but I think that might be little too wet for this remote. I think they make a wireless remote that is waterproof, that might be a better choice. Good luck p.s this unit is fantastic

I've had it for quite some time now but have never tried to see if it was waterproof. It looks very promising though and I'm sure that it is because there are rubber seals throughout the product.

If I understand the question correctly, I think so. My nephew dropped my other remote in water, so this one replaced my old remote. It works fine for my system as a lone remote.

I'm not sure if it could withstand falling in the water or not but mine has gotten wet from rain and is fine yet. Those dimensions must be for the box of everything included because the remote is the same size, if not smaller than most tv remotes.

You can use out out of water, but I'm not sure why you would. The remote has to have a clear shot at the receiver which is located about halfway up the power cable.

Yes, it is waterproof. It has been out in the weather all winter and through heavy rains and it still works perfect. Would recommend it to anyone. It protects my motor home.

No remote but it has the waterproof controller shown inthe picture. (It was a great investment!)

No. It is definitely not waterproof. It is no different in its construction than a TV remote.

Yes, it is waterproof. The covering is thick plastic. You can just wipe it off.
