Hello, Crazy question here.
During a camping trip last weekend, we awoke to find the stern of our boat submerged by a viscious tide (and a poor anchoring strategy). The battery was completely underwater for a good few hours. We're thinking we're screwed.
I can see that the thing might be sealed well enough to prevent a chemical reaction but why wouldn't it just short itself right out across the poles in the water?
It started up like nothing ever happened.
How is that? Can someone explain?
Thank You, Ben
