I put a ziploc bag over my ff when launching just cause. But, I've gotten it wet, dropped it on the freeway, ect... and it still works fine. You don't need all the bells an whistles the expensive ones have. I plug my ff to my battery, drop it in a waterproof sack and throw it in my haul. You don't need the waterproof battery case, high end plugs, switches, ect.... That's how I've been running for years. I even use this setup on my longboard. But that's JMO

Well said, most of the time keeping things simple is by far the best route to go. Also you can upgrade at any time you wish.....
