What dry box works the best?

Shopping for a small dry box to put in my BC for some cash and a credit card or keys. Any recommendations on a brand that does not leak?

Pelican makes the best dry boxes as far as I am concerned.

I've had the same Witz box for over 5 years. No leaks. I do have to take keys off their rings though usually, it's not very wide. Which may be why it hasn't leaked. C-Card, credit cards, about 4-5 bills and two normal keys fit. I think an electronic key would also but I've never tried it.

I found it funny that the dry box from DAN was flooded the first time my parents used it. I hope their insurance works better!

I got a small Otter Box from ST for my keys, CC and cash etc. It's said to be waterproof up to 10 feet deep and got a lifetime warranty on it

How ironic. I guess DAN was not their buddy that day. It would have been doubly ironic if somehow the dry box was put on DAN-endorsed equipment insurance.

Hmmm... how do the dry boxes you can find in the fishing/camping section at Wally World work?
