    I have too. They're one of the makers of the Walmart brand. There's one other motorcycle shop in town I need to call next week. They're a Honda/Yamaha/Polaris dealer so they may have something comparable. I have $75 in H-D gift cards, but that's still $110+ out of pocket. But if Interstate can only do $165, I may have to shell out the $110 and skip getting any bike bling with the cards.

    They're great! Hook 2 wires through a hot dog and it'll warm it right up....:boink:

    Actually they are said to be one of the better batteries. I've seen a few of them hooked to trolling motors.

    Ok, you can put ketchup on your hotdog...but nobody else! Not until they've proven their worth as a proper carnivore.

    LEDs aren't much of a draw. That should more than sufficient to run stand alone lights for quite a while. Solar would be more than enough.

    I've found I do better when eating my raw steaks by chasing them with toasted sweet potatoes.

    Just saw multiple brands of jobsite LEDs for rechargeable batteries at HD. Dewalt has a 1000 lumens hand led with red led option. Ridged makes a nice fold out.

    Back home from the car show and had a lot of fun . When that 67 Camaro Drag race car , my friends Mustang and my Camaro started up it sounded like it was the pit area of the drag strip

    There were people pulling out there cameras or phones taking pics or videos of the nice music from exh of these cars .The look on peoples faces at the stop lights as ea of us waited for the light to go green

    :rofl: Did you write the carp recipe too?

    We have some really hot water. Hope it holds up. I really should turn it down some anyway.

    That it is. We'll see how all that turns out. The Savanah river begins near my house, but the old bomb plant is quite a ways down.

    Hey Mike, our folks have come up there and recruited some of the paper mill workers and a few have actually relocated here. Our age of electronics and internet have killed a lot of the paper and print business. We make towell and tissue. You can't wipe your butt on the internet. We are selling everything we can make and have just started construction on a fourth machine. They are huge, btw.

    That's great. Towns were so wrapped up in the mills, everything revolved around them.
    Maine has one of the highest tax rates. Red tape, and laws that hinder jobs and companies.
    I can't see why they couldn't have done something like your doing.
    Or the cost was just to great to retool.

    Fixed it for you, at least that is what we always called it in the Navy. Asked for it once in the hardware store as Monkey Shit because I couldn't recall what civilians called it. The guy smiled and knew what I was talking about.
    LOL I hear you love them all too. They are all "right" to me just depends on the time and situation.

    I picked up the Rigid LED panel couple of weeks ago. Can't get them on line and they can't keep them in stock. They are awesome! I have the 5 piece cordless Gen5X kit with 3 batteries and they really got the Gen 5X right.

    Just got home from the river today. Couple hundred eagles on the river from Wabasha up to Red Wing. Teens below zero windchill and I wasn't dressed for it, was 21 when I left the house so didn't think the river would be that cold. Ended up at a restaurant across from the Red Wing Shoe factory. Had a bowl of chili to start the warm up. Then a Kielbasa sandwich with sauerkraut, pickles, cheese, green peppers, on a pretzel roll.

    And they served it with ketchup!

    Now to see if any pictures turned out. The way I was shaking in the cold and eyes tearing up from the wind doubt it.
