Is this remote watertight? Would it be ruined in a rainstorm, if I had it on my keychain while riding my motorcycle?

I have it on my motorcycle keychain and have not had much of a problem. The first one I had did stop working but I think it was more due to the vibration rather than moisture. I do however live in California so we don't get much rain but I have been out in the rain with it. I love having it on my keychain. Makes things so easy.

I don't know for sure but in my opinion it is not water tight; I wouldn't expose it to rain.

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 definitely wouldn't submerge it or subject it to direct rainfall because of the buttons and switches. However, I have left it in the back of my truck several times overnight and had no issues from the cold or heavy dew.

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 don't know if it is water proof enough, but I do know it's not sticky enough. You would have to actually glue it down, and depending on the glue if the battery died you might then be stuck with it there. I just hold up my house key to my mailbox and use the light that way. Hope that helps!

No, it is not waterproof. The remote itself, however, is waterproof to a depth of 3 meters (10 feet). I am an underwater photographer and have experimented with a number of different configurations, none of which have worked well at depths of 30'-60'.

The device is weather proof just don't submerge it in water but the ease of removal is subjective depending on how tucked away the the wires are but it would be more of a pain to remove and replace every time it rains and if this is a concern of yours look into a blue tooth ready helmet with a clip in unit like a Nolan or hjc; but passing up this unit or any sena product would be a mistake.

I have ridden under light and heavy rain and it works properly! But I avoided pushing the buttons... just in case!

Doing further research on the light it does mention that it is waterproof and skid proof but examining my light itself here is what I can say. There are thin rubber seals like those found in waterproof watches in the tail cap and the bulb cap. I can't say how well it stands up in real conditions but I have run it under the faucet and no water leaked through the tail or bulb cap. The telescoping part is the only concern I have if using it under long periods of time in rain

Drove through a couple of really heavy rains - had no leaking. As for a lock - I don't believe so, unless you lock the zippers together.

It's fine on motorcycle. Mine's big enough for light jacket underneath. Keeps me dry in moderate rain, never used in heavy downpour. (I have W/S so that helps too.)

Good afternoon from Australia.I am very happy with my Orbit Watermaster. Mine is located under cover therefore rain is not an issue but I would strongly recommend a weather proofing box if you intend to locate it outdoors. As far as the wireless feature is concerned, I frequently operate mine with 4 brick walls between the remote and the main unit and have never experienced any problems. I would say that with a plastic box there would be no problem but with a metal box there could be.Good luck.

I wouldn't call the keypad waterproof. Weather resistant yes. I mounted in an exterior vestibule out of direct sun and rain.

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.

No. it's not water-resistant. I rode it under heavy rains and had not problem at all. As long as it's not submerged in the water and should be ok.

Dear customer, if it is caught in the rain, I ensure it is OK. But if you want to use it Underwater diving, I think it doesn't.

It will handle high humidity fine. Rain will not damage it, unless it is very high acid rain. With normal non-high-acid rain the only important thing is to never plug it in until it is completely dry inside. Since it is fairly difficult to be sure a semi-sealed case USB drive is completely dry inside the easy answer is don't get it wet. There's really no reason to have it hanging from a heychain on a pants loop outside. The extra bulk will just cause it to bang against things a lot while there are other drives with no possible way for water to get in.

More like water resistant. It's housed in a plastic box. The bottom has a cover with 4 screws in it and the cover has a rubber seal. I definitely don't recommend it if you snorkel your atv or to submerge this box in any way. I mounted mine under the seat to keep it dry from rain and splashing water and mud. I actually bought this control to replace the remote unit on my Badlands winch. That box (similar to this one) filled up with water and ruined the contactor. The remote wasn't water proof either and died. Not sure why you would make an ATV winch control and not make it waterproof (epoxy seal it, etc). Hope this helps. More like water resistant.
