Can it be submerged to a depth of about 4 feet?
I can see where the remote could be put in a ziplock bag and hopefully be waterproof.
The small earphones, as seen on a video, were dunked in a fish bowl so I guess they are semi-waterproof (at least)

Yeah,Roy it's water proof,BUT the signal won't reach the control unit,or earphones,once the coil is under water, without a antenna! Deus is working on a setup for water hunting now,and a few owners have made their own antenas!
