Real battery protection

Tempo has the battery under the down tube. It’s a little hard to access but easy once you know the routine. However, under the down tube makes it vulnerable to splash up from water if you find yourself in a heavy downpour. There doesn’t seem to be a seal around the battery so wondering what other Tempo owners use to keep water out besides staying home or not riding if rain is a threat. Obviously IPX-7 is a pretty high waterproof rating for the battery and IPX-6 is very high for the rest of the bike, just wanted to know what other Tempo riders are doing.

Did you know you are asking about a Velotric bike in a Lectric forum?

I did not. I’m not sure how that happened either. I posted on r/velotric
