hmm.. sounds fun. I'd dry it out completely before playing with it.. I'll remember that under the seat gets wet for when the datatool goes in.

alarms are well known for discharging batteries, you battery should have a 12 month guarantee at least so whatever kills it it should be able to charge back to its full capacity, most batteries will last at least 3 years before they lose their ability to recharge so you should be fine unless the battery is faulty.
