Are these units water proof?

There is no mention of being water resistant and based on their design, I would not advise exposure to water.

they are not waterproof but the moisture doesn't soak through quickly if subjected to some water. i haven't submerged them in anything so i can't speak to that..

I use them outdoors, but they are not directly exposed to rain. For example, I have one installed under the eves of the roof. Another one in a covered entryway. I don't think they are water proof or water resistant.

I would not trust them to be waterproof. There is no indication from the mfg. that they are.

they are designed for boat so I would say water resistant but not proof, you don't want to immerse them into water.

Honestly we never really used them near water, however we did use them in wet weather.They work just fine.

I have always heard they are not water proof. That's a better question to direct to Tri-Tronics to make sure you get the correct answer before you get it wet. Good Luck!

very water proof. the units are sealed. I have had the units on my jeep for several years and have never had any problems with water penetrating the unit.

I wouldn't trust them with a lot of water. I would treat them similar to your cell phone. They are amazing radios for the price!

I am not sure about that? They are electronic so I don't think they are water resistant.

I would say no. It is definetly not water proof and moisture would play havoc on them.

Have had them outdoors, rain and shine, so yes, they are water resistant. The area where I use them are on the steps leading to the front entrance of our home and it is not covered area, so they get rained on and are exposed to water run-off.

They are waterproof as far as rain or even pressure washing goes. I have not tried to submerge them into water as of yet. But in order to do that water would have to be 3 foot deep.

Seems they are. I rode my bike a couple times in heavy rain so far, and neither of them got wet inside. The Casing is pretty solid and the top button is covered in a form-fitting rubber layer.

yes they are water resistant by their construction but not water proof as in deluge.

They have a rubber feel to them so I would imagine that they would be water proof, I wipe them down but I do not submerge them in water.
