Went out looking for deals today and found this. 9 bucks wasn't the greatest price but I needed one of these quick.

In the last month, tools, I think, I bought in the last month 3"x21" belt sander, electric orbital sander, compass, protractor, 100' tape measure, 1" to 3" drum sander, angle air grinder, and 2 bar clamps.

How come most car batteries no longer have carry handles?
I had to buy a Nascar battery strap since I am pulling battery off boat soon.

Attaches to top post, just tried it on a battery, it holds well.

Finally picked up a decent battery load tester.
Name: LoadTester100Amp_zps377d70df.jpg Views: 13 Size: 269.5 KB
You click the toggle switch for 10-15 seconds and read the CCA & Voltage scales.
Any 100 Amp load test over 20 seconds, the interior coil gets red hot like your oven !!
