Aquapac
124 Case |
Overview
Aquapac 124 Case:
Have you ever
lost a phone to water damage? If not, you've been really lucky…
so far! Depending on who you talk to, something between 10% and
25% of all mobile phones end up ruined by water. And that's in
the general population, half of whom rarely get off the couch!
If you're the active-in-the-Great-Outdoors type and you need to
take your phone with you then the odds are seriously stacked
against its surviving very long. Unless the phone is already
100% waterproof (is yours?) Or unless you protect it inside a
100% waterproof Aquapac 124 case.
Once your phone is safely tucked up inside the Aquapac
124 case you'll be
able to take it and use it wherever you want to go and whatever
you like to get up to.
A fair number of
GPS units are waterproofed these days, to an international
standard called IPX7. This means they are designed to withstand
temporary immersion. For example, an accidental dunk or splash
in the lake. The Aquapac 124 case is tested to the higher standard
IPX8 which means they would protect your GPS even if for some
reason it had to be submerged continuously.
In actual fact the Aquapac 124 case rating is IP68. The '6' indicates
that as well as being 100% waterproof the Aquapac 124 case is also 100%
airtight and dustproof. Being airtight, the Aquapac 124 case will make
your GPS buoyant. So if you drop it over the side, instead of it
being lost to Davy Jones's Locker it'll stay floating safely on
the surface, and you'll be able to retrieve it safely.
If you use any electronics in a marine environment, under
continuous exposure to salt air, experience shows that even
'waterproof' equipment will eventually succumb to corrosion.
Unless, that is, you invest in an Aquapac 124 case.
