How water resistant is it? I want to use it on my paddle board

I use it on my mountain bike. I don't think it would do well on a paddle board. You might want to consider a Boombottle instead.

Its good for light rain and no more. I wouldn't take it in heavy rain, or out in the water unless you just want to kill it. I take a little bag with me (inside its storage compartment) to cover it if it starts to rain more than a drizzle.

Because there are no depth indicators on it like water resistant and waterproof watches, my comment is the following: the water resistance of this item is enough to protect it should an unexpected shower hit it...it will maintain until cover is provided. I do not believe it could withstand a full-on rain shower nor do I believe it could withstand the "perils" of paddle boarding. :-)

I don't think it would work well with the paddle board. It does fine in the rain. It lets water into the compartment but the electronics stay dry enough. If your paddle board get submerged it would not survive.

I have only used it in light rain it was fine however i would look elsewhere the battery life is not good on this product about hour and a half tops

I cannot be certain about that. I would think that it might be water resistant, if not water proof.

I'm sure it's well resistant, but I wouldn't bet on PROOF without some additional epoxy covering. You could give it a shot ... It's not an expensive test. The water will likely interfere with the wireless signal if it is submerged, though. Probably will make the device very hard to use, unless you're just talking about weather resistance for outdoor use. As with all projects of that nature, try to give them a little protection from the brunt of the rain force, but they will handle the splash back without a problem.

The grip area has a thin synthetic material. The Fred Meyer store chain here is carrying a very similar paddle at this price point now that has nicely insulated foam rubber about 3/16 inch thick. Would be great for temperature and anti-fatigue comfort. Will get brand and model info to add to reply

Water resistant maybe. I wouldn't submerge it oh expose it to excessive water.

definitely not waterPROOF. resistant? maybe. just buy the thing, if it gets ruined it is cheap enough to chalk it up.

I highly doubt out of the box it is. You could coat the board with epoxy to make it more water resistant.

I have one of these and use on a fresh water lake.. my paddle sinks right away. Glad I tested it - ended up getting a paddle leash which works, but can get in the way. Better than losing it though I suppose.

It is water resistant, but not water proof. It has an open USB port that has a plug...that will easily let water into the device if submerged. It would not survive jumping into the lake...but probably would survive a sprinkler or rain as it is located under the neck with the collar clamp.

Resistant, absolutely. I've spent many rides in the rain with this decide. I would not recommend submerging it in water for any reason, however. It is not waterproof.

It's not water proof but I used it outside and didn't have any problems with it.

I don't believe it was designed to be water resistant but I believe it can be. Since it is a remote, it requires power (battery) so it will have to be replaced at some time. A thin bead of silicon sealant around the button and a small amount around remote should make it pretty water resistant. Since water runs down, seal it best at the top. I think that should keep it dry for some time.

It is water resistant, but I wouldn't recommend for a lot of swimming. Especially after a battery change

Not waterproof in any way. I use it to hold the parts I don't use and bought a zippered bag to hold the boat, but that isn't water tight either.

It is water resistant depending on how long and how much water its exposed to.

I believe it is advertised as water resistant, but I'm not going to dunk it to verify. If I ever go out of my canoe, I'll let you know.

Hi Thomas,It is not water resistant, so better not to use it outdoor. but it is sensor detection. it's a nice one.
