so I’m guessing it has not happened
but then again not many people use them in water

Ah nice thanks @anon48059102 I am gonna have a look
Very highly probably not. The mp3 player just does not have enough current to cause bodily damage unless the battery unexpectedly explodes. The issue relates to grounding, surface area and mass. Most swimming pools are grounded which would drive voltage to ground and not you. Also most modern mp3 players have limited battery capacity, which spread over such surface area and mass makes the current in question impossible to penetrate your dermal skin layer…
The AC line is a different story.

Mp3 players don’t usually have batteries anyway do they?
They just get charged with a USB right
Is it relevant to the MP3 player and swimming pool
I think the mp3 player will be damaged. My Bluetooth headphones went through the wash and they were supposed to be waterproof and they were damaged. I envy you because you are going swimming lol

Some MP3 players have permanent internal batteries that you recharge. Others use removable batteries (e.g. AAA).

Yes. If the MP3 player is connected to an AC outlet and it falls in the pool with the plug intact, it can kill you.

According to the reviews for this one it works since it specifically designed for that. I was impressed too tbh didn’t know they had invented such a thing.
OK that I knew. Didn’t know what AC was.
Thanks inner circle
That’s pretty cool!

I think if it says it’s waterproof you should test it out in a sink then if that works, you can go swimming with it.

So I went swimming today and thought the movement of the water sounds quite nice. Maybe music will be too much. Anyways I’m scared i may be the first person to be electricuted. Or I don’t want the hassle to worry about this so maybe I will just not listen to music at least the pool doesn’t play their own music so I’m not forced to listen to some other stuff. Idk decisions decisions
