I have just spend a rainy weekend camping and discovered four inches of water in the battery case. It appears on the Spree E18RBT the rain runs down the unopened front bed, off of the top of the stone guard on to the protective battery case cap. Since the cap has two vents in the top, the rain can flow in and there is no drain hole in the base of the case to stop the accumulation in the case.
My concern is the possibility of the case filling up and shorting out the terminals and blowing up the battery next to the propane tank.
1) Can I drill holes in the bottom of the case for drainage?
2) Can I seal off the top two vents and rely on the air getting in under the cap?
What is the recommended fix here?
