Top 6 gadgets that work in water / Water Proof Gadgets
Why would you want a gadget that works in water? Well
if you were in New Orleans in 2005, you may consider that a silly question (on
the 31st of August, 2005, over 80% of New Orleans had been flooded).
But, distasteful jokes aside, why would a person want gadgets that work
underwater? Underwater tools and gadgets have been around for a very long time,
but now we have come to a point in history where consumer electronics may be
used under water. Now it is not just people designing underwater submarine
stations that have gadgets that work underwater. A holidaymaker may purchase
underwater gadgets. There are even gadgets that work in your local swimming
pool. Here are five fantastic gadgets that will work underwater.
1 - FujiFilm Finepex XP100
The top spot has to go to this digital camera. It is
able to take photos at a depth of ten meters. It has really been optimized for
being completely submerged in water, and what’s more, it is still able to take
high quality pictures with its ten mega pixel qualities. The waterproof camera
is also able to withstand dirt and sand too, and it is even freeze proof at
temperatures as low as -10 degrees Celsius.
It is not just an underwater camera, as it can be used
in a number of harsh conditions. It can withstand snowstorms and rainstorms,
and can be used at a wide range of locations, from dirt bike rallies to trips
to sea world.
2 - FrontGate Scuba MP3 Player
Second place goes to an MP3 player that may be played
underwater. This is really the height of decadence. As if swimming underwater
with your fancy goggles on is not enough, this device allows you to listen to
music as you swim. You can listen to your favorite music whilst swimming with
the fishes in the sea, or whilst swimming in your pool at home. The headphones
and the goggles are water resistant and it has an amplifier built into it. They
can work at depths as low as two hundred feet, although if you are at that
depth, your last concern will probably be your music. It can store a lot of
music on there too so that you are not forced to keep listening to the same
music over and over again.
3 - Casino Marine Ana-Digi 8 Dive Watch for men
Divers watches have been around for a long time, but
that does not mean that they should be ignored for the fact that they work
underwater. This phone looks expensive, and comes with a large number of
functions for the diver to play with. It is scratch resistant and will keep
working at a depth of one hundred meters.
4 - Sony Xperia Acro S
This is a water resistant phone, which means that if
you leave it in a bucket of water, it will eventually start to see damage. But,
as water resistant phone go, this one takes a lot of beating. You can hold it
one meter under water and take a photo with the 12 mega pixel camera. You may
pour water on the phone, and even expose it to water jets. Normally,
pressurized water will find its way into splash-proof electronics as the water
forces its way into the tiny permeable areas, but not with this mobile phone.
It is also dust resistant too, so you need not worry about dirt and grime
getting into the inner workings of your phone.
5 - Motorola MT352TPR Giant FRS 2 Way Radio
This device is able to withstand an awful lot of
water, although will not do too well if you submerge it for a long period of
time. However, if you are in very wet conditions then this radio set is for
you. It has a very good battery life and a very good reception. It comes with
three radios and a bunch of other extras. If you are camping or doing outdoor
activities in wet and nasty conditions, then this is the product for you. It
will not start to fizz, or break down on you if it is exposed to excessive
amounts of water. It also means that it is fairly quick to dry because the
water just beads up and rolls off.
