Subject: Pressure compensated batteries
Has anyone used pressure compensated gel cell batteries underwater
before?  I heard about the U.S. Navy evaluating this technique a while
back. The pressure compensation technique involves placing a needle port
in the top of the battery case and injecting mineral oil into the
headspace of the battery case.  Once sealed terminal contacts are
attached,the batteries supposedly can be used underwater without a
sealed pressure housing.
