Pool Buster vs Pool Blaster

[CarlD]

I took my battery pack to my local interstate battery store and they rebuilt it for me. Total cost was $28.

How do they guarantee that it's waterproof?

I just took off the foam gasket from the old battery pack and glued it on the new one. So far it seems OK but I have only used the PB a couple of times since I changed out the battery. I don't think that the foam gasket that is on the battery pack even serves a purpose. The waterproof part is the motor/battery cover.

No guarantee from Interstate, I didn't even tell them that this was for an underwater application.

Just a quick follow up:

The new battery pack from Interstate is still working like a charm. However the last time I used the PB some water poured out from inside the motor/battery compartment. Upon investigation I noticed that the two o-rings on the screwed cap (the part you use to turn the PB on) were in bad shape. I went to Lowe's and replaced the o-rings. This fixed the leak.

Hope this save someone out there some time/money.
