Default testing?

I'd like to see your report. The reviews often indicated there was no way to tell if it was functional,. Low or dead battery etc. If I throw one end of a live extension cord intro the lake, will it go off? Any indication of functional radius? Obviously that depends on the source of electricity. My impression is that if that live extension cord fell into the lake, the related GFCI breaker would pop. We're in the midst of dock upgrades, totally new wiring, adding power pedestals, etc. so this is timely discussion for us.
