Aquapac 108 Waterproof iPod/iPhone/GPS Case

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. Aquapac cases are 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 rating is IP68. The '6' indicates that as well as being 100% waterproof the case is also 100% airtight and dustproof. Being airtight, the Aquapac 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.

Details:

• You can make and take calls right through the case material. With most phones it makes no noticeable difference to the volume. And the GPS signal is unaffected.
• We've added a LENZFLEX window on the back, which means that if you have a camera-phone you'll be able to take photos right through the case.
• The Mini Phone/GPS Case (code 108) fits the average size phones and GPS units.
• Most phones float in the Aquapac, but a few don't such as the iPhone. Ultra-slim phones like the iPhone should float if you fold up a few pieces of tissue paper and slide them into the case behind the phone. Test yours in a basin before first use outdoors.
• Its guaranteed submersible to 15 feet (5 metres).
• The UV-stabilized TPU material won't be broken down or discoloured by sunlight.
• It keeps out dust and sand too.

Supplied with:

• An adjustable neckcord so you can hang it round your neck.
• 3-year global warranty

Maximum size of equipment to fit in case:

• Length: 5in/125mm
• Circumference: 6in/150mm
