"Tough and IP69-rated The case is made from tough, fiber-reinforced composite construction, complete with a gasket that seals it to an IP69 rating (completely dust-tight and able to withstand high-pressure water jets and steam cleaning), along with quality CNC-machined fasteners. An Allen key is even supplied for assembly. You just need to add an AirTag and a couple of AA batteries."
"Speaking of the batteries, ElevationLabs recommends using Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries, and I second this. These batteries offer excellent longevity, stable power output, and in my many years of using them, I've never experienced a leak. Avoid using cheap alkaline batteries for a project like this, as you run the risk of damaging both the AirTag and the case if the battery bursts and leaks its corrosive goo everywhere."
"Also: The best power banks you can buy But I have two bugbears about AirTags. First, the shape is odd and doesn't lend itself to being attached to things directly. The second issue is the one- to two-year battery life. The battery life issue is particularly frustrating, and I constantly have a few AirTags needing new batteries. I've now resorted to buying CR2032 coin batteries by the dozen ."
The ElevationLabs TimeCapsule converts an AirTag to run on two AA batteries, promising up to ten years of operation. The enclosure uses fiber-reinforced composite construction with a sealing gasket and CNC-machined fasteners to achieve an IP69 rating for dust and high‑pressure water resistance. Assembly requires removing the AirTag battery cover, placing the AirTag on a metal power plate inside the case, inserting two AA batteries, and screwing the cover down. Energizer Ultimate Lithium AA batteries are recommended for longevity and leak prevention. Cheap alkaline batteries are discouraged due to leak risk and potential damage to both AirTag and case.
