Use Tips
:
The AquaMic is IP68 certified waterproof to 100 feet (30 m). Audio
quality and RF performance maybe be impacted if water is able to
penetrate into a loose-fitting connector. To keep the AquaMic in top
condition, rinse the AquaMic with fresh water after use, especially if
used in saltwater.
