does this device waterproof ?

The ad plainly says "In the event of a flood, unit will float and continue to sound alarm until battery is depleted !" I would think it might NOT be waterproof on top because that's where the speaker is. It is obviously waterproof enough on the bottom or it would not float. BTW: Watch the video. The beeps are morse code for "SOS". Cute ! :)

I dint think so..if it's submerged in water the hole on top would most likely spoil the circuit

Yes. This device is remarkable. The sensitivity is almost like magic. I would highly recommend this detector to be used by EVERYONE, regardless of whether or not you think you might have a problem with water leaks. Under you lavatory vanities, kitchen sink cabinet, close to your water heater. The product is very affordable and requires no installation. It is virtually unnoticeable until it detects a leak. Once the alarm goes off, there will be no question in anyone's mind that there is a problem. Get some and prevent a very costly water intrusion experience.

The device itself is not waterproof as the outer case is just 2 pieces of plastic that are snapped together. It is intended to detect small amounts of water (that could turn into larger amounts) before it becomes a problem. If it were to be completely submerged, it doubt it would work (for very long).

It's not waterproof. It will survive a thin layer of water on the floor. It THINK it would survive 1 cm of standing water just by looking at it, but I'm not sure.

Yes. It is waterproof. I have used mine in the shower countless times. Works great.

No, it not waterproof. Yes it can be used outside, just don't get it wet! I use mine all the time outside!! Yeah, electronics and water don't mix too well.

It has worked after getting wet but not marketed as waterproof. Try plastic, clear ziploc bag. It will not interfere with the functions.

I would say no! I haven't installed mine yet. I have checked it for proper operation. I'll be using it inside of my vehicle. Item doesn't feel waterproof at all. Not cheap either.

No it is not waterproof. It does not cover openings to inside phone like jack and usb. But it does protect body and screen..

No definitely not - It is not sealed or waterproofed. It would be OK I think in a rain, but a swimming pool would be out of the question. Besides the moisture issues, chlorine (and salt too) are very corrosive to electronics.

Yes. I live in Hawaii and use the device on a small boat. The unit is water resistant, regularly gets wet from ocean spray and I rinse it down with fresh water after each outing.

Yes, when properly installed it has proven to be completely water proof both when providing power to an accessory or when closed and not in use. This is an outstanding product as far as I'm concerned.

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

Only the probe is water proof. You can wipe the digital display (somewhat water resistant) down but Do not immerse the digital display.

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.

Hi, I don't know if the entire unit is waterproof/resistant. I've had the panel exposed to morning dew and it was fine, but I don't know if rain or water were to get into the usb connector if it would continue to function properly. It might be worth trying to DIY waterproof to the usb connector.Good luck...sorry I didn't have a straightforward answer for you.

Water resistant is not the same as water proof. Common sense says not to submerge any electronics in water even if using a water-proof case. I've gotten mine wet from rain and mud but not dropped it in a toilet, for instance.

No,and mine only worked for two weeks and the company would not make it good.."the waste of $ 200.00 plus dollars and it is not water proof, but i never dropped mine in the water.....mine just stopped working after two weeks. Priscilla. Davis. California

No, not that I can tell. It is a rechargeable and wireless device that links to your Bluetooth phone. Its really slick on how they made this and I do not think the device has even been wet with using the shower

It should be, the files are stored on an sd card not on the device itself. Btw if you plan on taking this anywhere near water, forget about it. Not close to waterproof.
