Aquapac 100% Waterproof iPhone Case http://www.aquapac.net A perfect fit

In response to consumer demand, Aquapac has launched a 100% waterproof case specifically for the iPhone 4 and a slightly larger version for the longer iPhone 5.

Lanyard

Previously Aquapac’s mini and small Whanganui cases were used to protect iPhones from water, dirt and sand. This new iPhone case has been cut-down in size so the fit is better and more compact.

As with all of Aquapac’s phone cases you can make calls, send texts and search through the case as well as take photos thanks to the Lenzflex™ window in the rear of the case.

If taking your phone onto the water to take photos or listen to tunes then you know your phone will be safe and dry thanks to Aquapac’s water-tight clamp mechanism – the patented Aquaclip® – which seals out water and sand. Guaranteed to IPX8 the case will cope underwater at depths of up to five metres for one hour.

Locking clips

Adjustable shoulder straps

I completed an indoor swimming test with the Aquapac and an old mobile phone (just in case) and everything was tinder dry 40 minutes later. Afterwards I inserted my iPhone to see if the operating claims were true and rest assued they were. Excellent!

Aquapac Stormproof Padded Drybag

Carrying a laptop or other valuables on the water could easily become a recipe for disaster, so lash them down in our padded drybag and worry no more. Aquapac’s Stormproof padded, rugged and simple to use dry bag is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts and leaves you worry-free whatever the weather. Manufactured from TPU-coated Nylon, it features welded seams and a classic 3-roll seal for complete waterproofing to IPX6 (fire hose proof). It has thick foam padding all-round for protection from impacts. Supplied with an adjustable shoulder strap, the bag also features a unique front lashtab for securing to kayak, raft or other luggage and 4 D-rings for great adaptability. This bag is big enough to fit a 17-inch laptop and anything smaller in fact we had two laptops inside. There are no separate compartments but we had a simple piece of cardboard so they didn’t rub each other.

Padding for protection against minor bumps and knocks

The internal area of the bag is foam-padded for protection against minor knocks only and is certainly not bomb proof. That’s not the aim of the bag though – that is to protect against water, which it does with ease. ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ●
