Waterproof pouch for saving electronic devices from calamity

Waterproof pouch for saving electronic devices from calamity


Postby Caberfeidh » Sat May 18, 2019 1:58 pm

Whilst rootling about in the Glasgow Angling Centre for fishing stuff for tomorrow, I found my holy grail; a waterproof pouch big enough for iPhone-with-additional-wide-angle-lens, car keys and any other bits you might want to save, you can operate your iPhone camera through it and it does not break the bank. Also it is big enough to have a robust strap and to be noticeable so you wont keep losing it, knowing it is somewhere, but which rucksack pocket is it in? All for a mere £5.99. https://www.fishingmegastore.com/scales-and-gadgets/stillwater-ppp-waterproof-pouch~27508.html?&utm_medium=shopping&utm_campaign=SHP_GR20&gclid=Cj0KCQjw2v7mBRC1ARIsAAiw3496tH3kJ7BLOUxUWeZ8T1vCd10I93QAFqIVUTdTF2Ln7n_SEqS3bV0aAtgaEALw_wcB

Have a look at Lomo. They do all sorts of dry bags, bags, wetsuits. All at good prices.

Looks similar to a certain company selling them for 3 times the price a few years ago. :lol:

Well, I used it and it works fine, in that I can operate the camera through the plastic pouch. I did not test it for waterproofness by dropping it in the water.

Good idea, I have one for my mobile phone. I also take a few zipped clear freezer bags with me for other items.
