I had seen these inductive buttons and also made an early version with waterproof buttons.
But today, after a year of using waterproof RF remotes, I think an outdoor box is no longer needed with Pypilot. The Sean’s calculator is better protected above the chart table, against the hull and a little away from electric cables and magnetic devices that can sometimes be placed on the chart table.
I find that the case that Sean provides with his calculator is very good if you don't try to waterproof it. It is better if it is open with holes at the bottom to drain condensation.
Without a tablet or phone, it's easy to change settings with Sean's infrared control remote.
My waterproof remotes have been working perfectly for over a year with the original batteries. The range is always satisfactory on my 30ft sailboat.
Sean d’Epagnier is an awesome designer. I would have liked to be in his navigation area to be able to help him a little.
