T&T: 12 volt receptacles

[Rob Dorsey]

Seven,

Actually, I've not seen humidity to be a problem. All the parts and
components in the headset jack assembly are either plated or a non-ferrous
material. But, remember that in my original post I said that I had used this
connector in an aircraft application. I've not tried it yet in a wet or high
humidity situation. 

Best,  

Rob D

Sounds like a great solution.  Do they survive the humidity or do you
replace them on a regular schedule ?
