Since it's called "Ship 'n Shore" is it also protected from extra humidity and salt in the air? Any extra rubber or insulation, things of that sort?

It is a Marine battery Charger so I imagine it is. I don't know about any extra rubber or insulation.

No. I would say that since it is vented to allow heat to escape, it is not protected from the effects of sea salt in the air or humidity. I am almost positive you will not find any charger that offer's this kind of protection because they need to be open for heat disipation. It is however, a very durable and dependable charger you will get many years of use from if used properly

I always wipe it on the outside with a damp hot towel and dry extremely wellwith a paper towel on the outside. I think with thefumes of the salt air flow the inside is well protected.. I am open to a better suggestion. I've used mine forwell over three years and am totally pleased with the results.

It is. The casing resists salt air corrosion. But, it functions just as well in fresh water too.

I live in Florida, but in real warm humid weather, the AC is always on. I use the fine ground Celtic Sea Salt in my salt shaker, but I need to "bang" it on my hand to get it moving! I don't fill it completely full since it is not a sealed shaker. The nutrients would probably be more effective if it were sealed. I don't have a problem with the top getting clogged up.

No. This is just the padding. You'd need to install a moisture barrier as well.

This was my concern also. In my opinion, yes, over time. I took a rectangular clear plastic top from a sealed container which covered an item I had purchased and attached it with stick on velcro to the side of this unit. It made a pretty good weather guard. The rotating lock code numbers are not weather proofed and could allow moisture in. To me, over time this would have to have a corosion factor.

The outside is plastic you cannot see what if anything is underneath. However, I can tell you the chair is very sturdy. I have had it about 8 months and it is outside all the time on my balcony facing the ocean. The salt air has not affected it. I do take the cushion & pillow inside when we are not using them. I also suggest a foot stool.

There is a soft rubber seal around the lid which if tightened ought to prevent moisture getting in/out. I have not tested this however, it is just m impression from inspecting the container.

Yes - it has a polymer lining that keeps the moister out. Mine has not been exposed to excessive rain nor have I dropped it in any puddles but it will keep your things dry.

It is slatted with some openings that allow water to get through. Have not found this to be a problem as sand with a little bit of moisture can be more fun for our daughter to play with - more moldable. We do keep it closed when it is not in use, but don't try to put a tarp over it to prevent any rain getting in. On sunny days it dries out pretty quickly.

I live two blocks in from the water in a high wind, high humidity, high temperature location. Mine is out in the elements in an uncovered seting area. So far so good but I have only had it outside for one season.

Yes. The product is sealed with gaskets and covers to protect it from the elements. Mine has been through two East Coast hurricanes without a hiccup.

Maybe a little but no not really. You're probably going to slowly still lose air. Also, it does not hold as well on salty surfaces. Meaning, if you're near a beach, it does not hold very well.

Kim, it is very weather resistant. I use it to run the speakers I use out on my deck in/out of the house. I've left it out overnight accidentally, and there was absolutely no condensation inside the box come morning. I wouldn't use it as a floatation device but it seems to keep my electronic equipment safe and dry~

Yes...it has a lip around the lid that overlaps the box which provides protection from moisture. I have used it outside in the weather for months now with no problems.

It can probably keep out sand if it was completely zipped. It doesn't seem as if it was waterproof--maybe water resistant, but I definitely wouldn't expect it to resist more than a few drops of water.

I did not use dehumidifier packets such as DampRid prior to covering my boat with the Vortex Heavy Duty cover. There are no vents in the cover however I do not believe I have a 100% water seal on the boat. Its never a bad idea though to use DampRid packets for winter storage of your boat.
