Hi Vance,
Along this same line, would you recommend using the
fuse covered in black goo in the battery pod of my wetsub?
I suspose I could make a small
seperate waterproof compartment that would house my fuses and solenoid
and isolate them from the battery pod. Is this preferable?
Kindest Regards,
Bill Akins.

Ok. Thanks Vance.
Would it be preferable for me to place the fuse
outside (both the pod and the habitable)? If the fuse is inside with me, is it
dangerous for me to get electrocuted if water enter the sub?

Pierre,
Batteries don't spark in normal service. A salt water short circuit, or
maybe the fuse blowing (which is why you pot those babies in black goo)
might light them up, but if put together correctly, I can't see any way for
it to happen. Mind you, if there's only one thing you learn underwater it is
that you always learn underwater--maybe the other guys will input on this.
