I am a commercial fisherman and I have owned 2 Aegis mods to use while on the boat. The first one lasted a good 6 months or so before it stopped working, but there were never any issues with water getting into the mod.
So I got an aegis legend thinking it would be just as durable. I was wrong. Salt water started getting in through the battery door, messing up my batteries. After just a couple weeks of use the water has made its way into parts of the mod that have made it stop working. Now I have a 2 week old aegis legend that is a paper weight.
The thing that really bothers me is that it's not like it was getting submerged or anything. It just gets splashed occasionally. I may order another just to see if it was a problem with that one mod, but I suspect it is a problem with the design of the door.
Just thought I should let people know in case anyone plans to get one of these for use in a wet environment.
