Seems to work. If it holds a vacuum, I expect it to be waterproof. You'll need to break it open for a recharge, but a quart sized plastic seal bag makes for 2 applications. Cheap and effective. just sharin info

Just a word of caution: Trapped humidity can condense
in the device and could potentially cause problems.
