Do you think mice will make holes in the PVC, because mine is also outside in a carport?
It is been outside for 2 years now and no holes detected

Our 12yo had a 200w Sea Scooter scuba thingy.I reckon in a tight spot I could tie a line around his ankle, bung him in with the scooter and use him as an auxillery!
