Default Castle CCBEC

So I'm worrying about my Castle CCBEC getting wet and ruining it, and wondering if I can plasti dip it (the dip kind). Is this going to Ruin it or not?

Thanks for anything.

You should be ok, I've seen/read others doing that. I used liquid electrical tape on the ends of one of mine. I have a CC BEC in my ProMT that has no wp, & hasn't failed yet, but I wouldn't take the chance again.

I also use the balloon. Fill the end with sillicone and zip tie shut. Balloons are extream cheap too.

I've yet to try it, but it is for protecting circuit boards/electronics.
