KS16S warning during hard rain

Yesterday I was riding slow (may be 10 km/h) under hard rain, with about 50% battery. Suddenly I can hear a warning spoken message from the ks16s (I can't understand the message). I stoped and verified the battery level at the side leds. All on (100%) which was impossible. Then the level was going down to the 50% in a few minutes. Wheel is now good and charges until 100% with no problem. Any idea about which message could be? waterproof problem?

waterproof problem?

Most probable.

There is a topic about KS16X water issues ? @Jean Dublin ? inquired KS - they stated IP44 for the KS16X. ...which seems at least a bit questionable - ipx4 should be safe from "splashwater" from all directions...

They (will) offer some measures to be requested through the resellers like ewheels. Nothing (too much) in detail known by now?

KS seems to learn nothing from the past... KS16S badly protected from water, KS18L is really well protected, KS16X can again suffer from water...
