That was cool! I skipped parts of the build, but watched the last 10 minutes of underwater work. 8)

The interesting part in terms of waterproofing of electrical connections by the Cummins Tech guy -is that dielectric grease worked even under 10+ feet of water. Considering how cheap that is and how easy to install, it is a useful confirmation of effectiveness. And a great plug for the 4BT
