Wally has 3-piece suits? , The wife just told me ours here in Red Wing doesn't sell lawn mowers, never seen any. I myself stays out of the place.

I bought my jumper from Home Depot 5 years ago still going strong use it at work for jumping the co. truck filling tires etc. works great. The nice big red one that says Husky . Around $80.00.

I almost bought that one, Perry. But when I saw this one, I thought I'll spring the extra $10 for it.

It's been awhile, but I have used this jump starter several times already and I'm very pleased with it. Like most reviews, you can't believe everything you read. <_<

Perry, Go to Home Depot and exchange it for a new one. If they tell you no, ask for a store manager and if he/she says they will not take it back ask for the number to Atlanta (corporate headquarters). They will do the right thing for you. A charger that is only two years old is just not right! Darn HD sells junk. I had mine do the same thing and they took it back after the same routine. Good luck-

OK, Scott - I'll put myself up for the 2009 dumb-a** of the year award! What is a "bridge clip"? The only thing I can think of is the double "u" clip used on plywood panels so they don't bow along the unsupported joint in between rafters or floor joists.

OK guys...you may now LYA's off! :drool:
