Author Message   Ulykan Posted on Saturday, April 11, 2009 - 11:40 am:        When a gps is plugged in to the power outlet do you need put a rain cover around it to prevent water from shorting it out? I've never used my power outlet and plan to power my gps with it but wonder about water getting in.   Rwven Posted on Saturday, April 11, 2009 - 11:59 am:        I have my Starcom installed in my tank-bag and I plug it into the aux. power outlet, rain has not caused me any problems (so far ). 12 volts won't push much current through relatively clean rainwater.   Ulykan Posted on Saturday, April 11, 2009 - 12:26 pm:        Thanks, that's what I needed to know. I'll proceed according to plan.   Pso Posted on Monday, April 13, 2009 - 10:11 am:        I use it with my Garmin and have ridden several times in the rain. No problem.   Snakebreak Posted on Monday, April 13, 2009 - 10:15 am:        I got water in it once and it was not a problem.
