get a SEALED battery.. Preferably an AGM or Gell.... the bigger danger
is acid spill... Also put it in a battery box.

It's almost impossible to be injured by low voltage sources like 12v
batteries. That's one of the reasons a lot of outdoor and pool

your are soaking wet and touch both battery terminals.

What happens If I get everything wet, or it rains? Could I get killed
by electroshock?!

All the best,
