Just looking for opinions, I'm typically the first to say just toss and buy a replacement in these situations...

-Dropped my glass heater, exterior tube did not bust, inner tube seems to have cracked etc.
Submerged in water overnight and it nothing entered it.
Thoughts on if it's safe to use?

You looking for a professional opinion or some bro science?

Fair question.
I guess I won't use it as a standard, but won't throw it out until I buy a replacement for it :)
I.E. won't use it unless NEEDED :)
Thanks @lapin
 
Sorry for the mishap, but I wouldn't use it. It's there for a reason.
