AiShell 8 description

The aiShell 8 is a 100% waterproof and shockproof case from German manufacturer Andres Industries. It is part of a long line of "hardened" protections developed by this manufacturer for all iPad models since 2010.

It consists of 2 rigid half-shells hinged on a stainless steel axle, opening like a book. Simply place the iPad mini 6 in the case, close the latches on the edges and away you go: your tablet is 100% protected! This tried-and-tested system allows repeated opening and closing, without wear or risk to the waterproofing.

On the front of the aiShell 8, a top-of-the-range protective film allows full use of the touchscreen with the same feel as the bare screen: sensitivity and transparency are perfectly preserved. This film offers not only waterproof protection, but also additional mechanical protection against moderate shocks. It can be replaced when worn.

Peripheral buttons let you adjust the volume and operate the iPad's on/off button without removing it from its protective cover.

Accessory slots, also located on the edge, allow the installation of rubber side pads (to prevent the tablet from slipping when resting on the edge) and/or a stylus holder (supplied). Other optional accessories can be fitted, such as a side handle or the useful sunshade.

Four rubber feet on the underside provide a highly effective anti-slip function. In addition, two folding feet enable the tablet to be tilted slightly for improved input comfort.

Charging the aiShell 8

In the lower part of the waterproof case, an opening provides access to the iPad's charging connector. When not in use, this opening is closed by a plug attached to the shell.

In a protected environment, the original cable supplied by Apple can be used. For outdoor connections, we recommend using the waterproof USB-C cable supplied by the manufacturer, for risk-free use in continuous rain.

Still for use in damp environments, there's another solution that ensures both charging and attachment: theUSB-C powered clamp. This is the ultimate solution, as it enables you to maintain complete freedom of movement with the iPad, while ensuring charging every time the iPad is rested in the clamp!

Securing the aiShell 8

Like its predecessors, the aiShell 8 waterproof case is particularly well thought-out in terms of attachment!

The main recommended mounting accessory is theaiShell mini bracket, which allows you to attach/remove the iPad in a fraction of a second and with just one hand. This bracket can be fixed directly to a wall, but it is recommended to mount it on an articulated arm so that it can be oriented towards the user.

What's more, the shell has several screw threads on the back to enable other accessories to be screwed on, such as a round base, rear handle or shoulder strap.

To meet current boating needs, iTabNav offers promotional "hull + fixture" packs for suction cup, handrail or tube mounting (see below). You can draw inspiration from these to build a system more suited to your needs, by choosing from our range of RAM fasteners (see Fasteners menu).
