RUGGED DESIGN

Venture 30 comes equipped with an IPX6 rating. Spray it down, take it to the beach, leave
it in the rain – and never worry about rubber plugs. It's engineered to get out, stay out and
handle whatever Mother Nature can throw your way – even a quick drop in a puddle.
Do not submerge Venture 30.
