I noticed the other day what appeared to be condensation on the inside of the control housing. I wrote it off as it seemed to disappear about as quickly as it appeared. The new machine has never been submerged to detect, only dunked to rinse off the sand and saltwater. Well, a couple days ago I took it to the beach and decided to dunk it and leave it submerged for a few seconds to see what would happen. After taking it out of the water I started detecting. After about 3 or 4 minutes there were two definite condensation pockets on the inside of the control housing. Not good. And just as the beach season gets underway. Up until now I have had nothing but great things to say about the machine, I hope this isn't going to become a regular thing. Every other water machine I've owned was used prior to purchase so I've always crossed my fingers and hoped for the best and have had great luck. Now I decide to go out and dump a bunch of cash on a brand new machine, and it leaks. Hopefully the repair will be quick and I'll be back on the beach before the season ends.
