Need weatherproof volt meter with switch

Question

I'm looking to mount a DC digital voltmeter with a switch, where it would be exposed to the elements. I'd like to keep it small, using something like the "mini" meters they sell on ebay for $6. What can I use for a small water-resistant enclosure? It doesn't have to be submersible, just water resistant.

EDIT: Now I see on ebay, they sell waterproof meters. Didn't know that.

Carry on...

I looked at a few of the meters on the page at the link you posted.

Most are rated for use over the temperature range of -10°C to 65°C (+14°F to +150°F).

Outside of that range, they will either not function at all or the accuracy will suffer.
