Better to have sealed unit

You could get water on the join where you plug the trip you descibe in and then get a shock off it

In a tent isn't quite as dry as at home

Yeah I know £60 is a lot.............but if it saves your life then its not that much money, I'd either spend more and get a safe one or not bother at all......Hook up for a tent isn't vital!!.
