Waterproof log pot?

Lumbee1 · Sep 24, 2007

While many others like the UI of the more advance controllers, I prefer the simplicity of an analog log pot for dimming. The problem is that I need tiny 50K water proof log pot for my light system and I haven't found any that will work.

Any suggestions?

I too have searched for waterproof pots. My conclusion? They don't exist, at least not to the public. You can get water resistant slide pots, but not rotary. I found a link to a place that sells add-on rubber boots to make them water resistant...that's at home though. You'll have to wait until later today to get the link

Here is the link to the company.

Thanks for the link. Those look expensive and I couldn't use the knob I made.

After comparing the pros and cons of an analog dimmer to a digital dimmer, it is difficult now to overlook the benefits:
configurable UI
one click/press for low/high operation
buck operation for larger battery packs
one waterproof switch for operation
hard set current levels
max level limit

Vishay P16 and PA16
available from RS Components.

They are good.
