No, not misspelled.
I didn't exactly leave it out in the rain, I just underestimated how long it takes PVC glue to dry. I turned on the water supply, walked around the corner, and see my nearby 18V Dewalt cordless drill being splattered with water from an elbow that just didn't want to stay joined.
I pulled off the battery immediately, shook what water I could out of the thing and set it in the garage to dry out. Should take about a month with all the humidity/rain we've got in Louisville these days.
Anything I should do to before reattaching the battery to keep from frying the drill? I bought it (remanufactured) from HF 5 years ago and it's been really great. Makes me sick I doused it.
