Can this be used out of the water?

Sure, but I would want to test how hot it gets before leaving it around pets or people.

The directions to most of these heaters say to unplug them before removing from the water. Water absorbs heat MUCH faster than air so it could overheat and burn out if exposed to air.

This product was designed to heat while submerged in water. It is always risky to use a product in a manner other than how the manufacturer intended. I recommend looking up and contacting the manufacturer directly to get an answer to that question.

I haven't tried putting it in the water, but wouldn't recommend doing it either way. There are way more mechanics to this one than the other Gups.

I haven't tried it, but I don't see why not. It works really well with water.

I assume you can. The idea however is that hit water leads to cleaner results

You could, but the heating element does not heat up the water very hot (in my experience).

Hi there - No it can not. It's clearly stated that it is NOT to be used for water in the Instruction Guide. Hope that helps. : )

no but with one of these it can be used under water http://www.amazon.com/compatible-Gomadic-Weatherproof-Protection-FloatableDesign/dp/B00E67R3J4/

I think you could, although there is a version that is specifically designed for outside use (and much larger, more liquid inside). We used those last summer and it really worked, this stuff is amazing.

This is designed to be used outside. You must be careful not to over water, or water will seep out the bottom.

It can. I use for water in my shop. Cannot be exposed to the weather or it will not hold up. Needs to be winterised the same as if it were in a stored RV.

Yes it can. But it works best with good water flow over it. I have an air bubbler under mine.

Well, having never used it in water, I can only make the assumption that it would. If I were not out of town on business, I would go try it for you. It works great out of water and I am guessing in water as well. If you want me to try it in water, I can do that this Thursday, August 14. Just re-post your question. Sorry for the "almost answer".

Yes you can. That is the reason I purchased it and it works great. The tiles are a hard plastic with area for the water to pass.

I guess you could. But I don't recommend this float. Too many issues, and mine didn't last.

I don't believe so, no. I have a different one for use in the water that floats, but isn't telescopic.

Yes, if you can even get it to go under water. It's so effective it can be used as a floatation device

It can go in the water, but I wouldn't consider it a water toy. It has to be drained out afterwards, as do the rest of the fleet.
