Hi. Great video. Did the machine still work even though you got water inside?

Have you experienced your speaker making poping sounds and the sound being faint and dull when water gets in? I called minelab for my 800. They said to me that adding silicone doesn't void the warranty. I did the same thing for the back. I still haven't done the speaker part. Can you still hear the sound coming out of the speaker when adding the cover and silicone? I was thinking of just adding waterproof tape, like flex tape for the speaker part.

Looks great for waterproofing the electronics... but how will this effect any future need to change the battery? Isn't the battery is located under all of that silicone?

that is pretty sweet. what is up with that paper hole minelab? its almost like its a moisture sticker that would turn pink on the old cell phones to mark if they got wet. i bet that paper hole will only withstand 10 feet pressure depth. any greater will make it rupture and flood the inside of machine

Hi, I'm curious to know if this has been enough to make it fully waterproof? Have you have any more leak since doing it please?

you should probably do the screen parameters too--with a clear sealing agent like the adhesive for the screen covers.

Isnt that paper disk a vent hole for the battery? Will it get to hot? Also can you hear anything with the speaker grill taped up?

It is..and it will get hot. The problem is not the gore vent noor the o-ring...Excalibur II has the same o-ring!! The problem is tiny fissure or cracks, at the base of the handle.,,,around usb slot or around the coil`s connector. A piece of plastic can´t last forever...so, i suggest regulary mantainance with silicon grease (around usb slot, around cable connector, etc...) and try to sweep VERY SLOWLY inside the water, to avoid cracks on the 4 screws or in the middle of the handle. Although some machines could have problems with o-rings or speaker flooding....but this happens soon, not after some months of use.
