is this waterproof? looking for a radio to bring rafting.

Yes/No - sorry for the vague answer but it withheld exposure to rain before being brought under cover but wouldn't promise it would handle rafting. Could you consider putting into a heavy duty ziploc/waterproof bag during transport and using it on dry land???

"Weather" proof-yes. "Waterproof"-no. It will take some water like if you left it out in the rain over night, itd be fine but it wont be fine if you drop it in the lake.

Instruction manual says: Do not expose the appliance to rain or moisture. Do not submerge or expose for extended period to water. Protect from high humidity and rain. However, a super great product in every other way.

It has patch material that will work on a raft. After the cement sets up it is waterproof.

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.

I believe it's water resistant, but not waterproof. There are double rubber rings on each connection, but personally I wouldn't try and take it under water.

I am not exactly sure if it is waterproof because i have not intentionally put water on the console. However, the radio is installed in a mounting box to keep it out of the weather and the speakers are just mounted in the open. I have not experienced any problems with them even though the speakers sit in the weather everyday.

I have it on a 2wd slash lcg and I've had it at around 70 yards and no the receiver is not waterproof to my knowledge.. But in the current receiver box it would be a good choice for a boat

It is not waterproof, no "O" rings to seal working parts. Will resist moderate drizzle/rain, or at least mine has so far. Light is really bright for such a small unit. I suggest you invest in Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries. I know they are expensive, but they last a really long time in this unit. I got rid of the head band and used nylon cable ties to secure it to my safety vest.

Yes, it is waterproof. I had to find mine that I dropped in the pool and found it after 30 minutes. It comes with a really short cord that charges and transfers music. It is really easy to lose. stock up if traveling overseas, I lost mine and I paid $35.00 for the phone jack/USB cable. But I can't swim without this iPod! Just carry around extra cords....

I cannot verify whether it is truly waterproof, but it would certainly survive a quick dunk or light moisture. There is a rubber o-ring around the head of the flashlight that I assume is intended to prevent moisture from leaking into the electronics. It also comes with several replacement o-rings.

I dont think that the speaker is water proofThe end of the radio is open to the rain.

It is fairly heavy due to the 3 large batteries (D), but there are a couple holes in the base for mounting on screw heads. I don't believe the unit is waterproof however.

Yes and no ..... depends on the make and model. ... but you can find way better radios for this price..... don't really see the need for a waterproof radio in a Honda civic! But it's up to you.

I had a marine radio several years ago that was waterproof but the mike finally went bad and I could not find a replacement mike . I think that was a Uniden brand.

its rated at 1 meter ( 3.28 feet ) for 30 minutes, most watertight radios can withstand 1 atmosphere, approximately 32 feet for a short period of time and yes it does float, gave it a float test and it passed

I am not sure as I have not had it out in the wet weather yet. It is a fantastic radio.

The transmitter is all sealed and works great in wet conditions but I am not sure that as to wheather or not it is designed for being in the water? I has the apperance that it would.

I think it could handle some minor splashes, but it is not water proof by any means. I've had it down by the pond and on the back deck, but it was not raining. The door that holds your mp3 player is not water tight at all. I have a 7th gen Nano that fits in there nicely and would keep sand off of it. The FM radio gets surprisingly good reception. The only real drawback is that it needs to have louder volume. BTW, I love the DeWalt blue tooth device for use with the radio. That way I can keep my Droid, or iPod, on me to control what's playing.
