Is the IR receiver waterproof.

No it's not. I encoded mine in an plastic electrical box with a small cut out for the sensor. Works well.

I don't believe the IR receiver is waterproof. It has ventilation gaps in the receiver that lead to the circuitry, which would probably be damaged with water. I also think it is more appropriate to call the LED strip weatherproof rather than water proof. You could probably submerge portions of the strip into water without doing any damage, but if you were to submerge the whole thing it would short out at the terminals on the ends.

No. You could seal it easily enough, but otherwise moisture can easily get in. I've used a half dozen of these and they work fine. I have gotten one that had a wire crossed so that blue and green were switched but that is easy to fix if you can solder.

The remote control can take water droplets on surface as well as the the IR reciever small black antenna. Yes it seems water tight.

I have not tried submersing it so I cannot attest to that. I doubt that the control box is, the IR diode itself, maybe. The diode is probably OK for rain the box would be iffy, but submersion is another issue.

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.

As others have answered it is just a speaker and would block any IR signals. Note that the speaker is very small so that it is less likely to block the IR receiver on a TV. This was the primary reason I bought it (and that it got good audio reviews for its size).

Yes it's waterproof and works great . I'm in maintenance and use it all the time with no issues

I do not know since I returned the meter after it had moisture in the display. The meter was advertised as waterproof.

It's not ir and does go through the wall in our office. We have had no problems with it and are quite happy. You can see (in the picture) the receiver has an antenna.

no. neither piece will be unless you make the in-line water proof. stick the remote in a zip lock bag if your worried about water on it.try plastic-dip for tools on the in-line receiver.the ends are open so water will pass thru them. you could try to seal those to make it water proof.its in heat shrink tube and plastic zip strips on the wires only.

I don't know. I use mine indoors. While the receiver might function at cold temperatures, I would not want it located where it could be exposed to rain. The Etekcity web site shows a tab for specifications but I was unable to pull up anything. There is a Canadian firm, whose identity I do not recall, which supplies industrial remotes with a very long range. The receivers are not plug-ins, but have to be hard-wired into a box appropriate to the location.

I only turned it on/off using the front button or removing power. I do not need a remote control so did not try this function and am not even sure if it has an IR receiver.

No it is not - water or moisture would damage the camera as there is a micro USB connection port on the side. Almost all water-proof cameras will advertise a "water proof" feature if it is included.

I think that the unit is water resistant which is NOT waterproof. The light is recharged via a USB slot and therefore prone to some possible water seepage. There is a rubber insert that slots into the USB port but that can be dislodged if not inserted carefully and therefore could expose the unit to possible water leakage.

Fully immersed in water, absolutely not. They say it is moisture proof, not waterproof. I'm telling you this because I'm an electronics engineer, rather than from experience with the actual device.

The sensor is waterproof, the dash mounted display should not be immersed in water

I don't think it is waterproof but I have used both parts of the unit outside with no problems.

I have not used it in water yet, but I do not think it is waterproof. It doesn't look like it would be waterproof, but maybe it is. The instruction booklet is silent on any waterproof capabilities regarding the remote. Check out the reviews on Amazon and you may find someone speaking to this issue.

Shouldn't be a problem since the transmitter box is fairly tight and should not allow water to get inside to electronics.

Never experienced the problem. Check to see that the IR sensor window is clear on the front panel. If that is not it you may have defective internal receiver.

I don't know if it is waterproof. I built a little box for it and mounted it on a 4by4 post. It was about 20 feet off the road and when cars would go by it would set the alarm off so I also covered half of the screen with some wood. It works great now.
