That's a good point Gene.
While setting up the speed controller for my rear thruster a while ago, I
accidentally reversed polarity to the controller and fried one of the
components on it. It was on the bench in the shop so no harm, other then
to the controller, but it got me thinking. What if something similar
happens in the sub while dived? I've decided to carry a small portable air
supply.
Any clear insulation on wire I've worked with melts at a fairly low
temperature and may not be suitable for high current applications other then
things like speakers.
Side note,
After getting permission from the Pennsylvania State Park Commission,
Persistence is getting wet today. It won't leave the trailer but it will
see it's first dunking. I'm putting in at the boat launch to test the
thruster amperage under load, and whatever else I have time to play around
with. If I'm still on schedule after that, launch will happen on June
6th.
