Loksak final

aLoksak IT: Starting at $6.49 per three-pack

On a summer outing, the clean air, warm sand and cool water may be refreshing for you, but they're certainly no day at the beach for your devices. Those elements spell potential disaster for the phone, e-reader and tablet you choose to bring along. Putting them in an aLoksak allows you not only to store your devices safely, but also still use them -- touch screen and all, even when swimming or scuba diving. Constructed using FDA-approved medical-grade film, these recyclable polyethylene bags are also good for protecting money, food, documents, batteries, medications, keyless entry devices and other items from air, dust and moisture.

NEWS: Beyond the Black Box

Make no mistake, though: these bags are tough. They've been tested by the U.S. Navy Experimental Diving Unit team and certified waterproof to 200 feet by Scuba Schools International (formerly NASDS). And they're temperature rated from negative 40 degrees to 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Size-wise, the super baggies are available in a wide range, from 3 by 6 inches to 32 by 16 inches.
