IP Rating:
The AquaKit is easy to use, waterproof and very robust
Design:
The AquaKit has been designed to be robust and waterproof, however, it does not sacrifice style in its ambition to be practical.
Features:
Boasting the World's First (and only) waterproof microphone, as well as a waterproof seal (providing the o-rings are in good condition) makes the AquaKit as full-featured as you might need.
Performance:
If used correctly, and in-line with operator instructions, the AquaKit has proved to be a useful and effective tool for cochlear implant users. To date, there have been few, if any, negative reviews about the performance. It does what it says on the tin.
Comfort:
With a selection of wearing options (including an arm strap, and a clip), the AquaKit is comfortable and practical to wear, regardless of age/size. The AquaMic Cable comes in a range of sizes, to cater for toddlers and adults alike. There are also adjustable armbands available for similar purposes.
Aesthetics:
The AquaKit is a semi-transparent case, in order to remain discrete and subtle. It's 'clean' design and simple operation makes the AquaKit's aesthetics a big positive.
IP Rating:
The AquaKit is IP 68 rated, for ultimate protection against water, sweat, sand, and grime
