So many things are water proof and user serviceable: Piping, engines, transmissions, water cooling (for pc or car) and those electric toothbrushes that have replaceable batteries.
This isn't a technical problem. We figured out how to make things water tight a long time ago.
- seanmcdirmid 5y agoNone of those things are consumer products the size of an electric toothbrush. The old electric toothbrushes simply couldn’t be submerged or used in the shower at all, they were just water resistant.
- Matthias247 5y agoIf you want a simple example then take a watch. Waterproof for decades, and batteries are replaceable.
- Too 5y agoGoPro has replaceable battery, sd-card, charge-port, hdmi-port, 3x microphones and a replaceable lens. It is smaller than a toothbrush and can be submerged.
