This is the way to go for jump starters:

I have a calendar note to charge mine twice a year, and they are always nearly fully charged when I check them. Simple USB charging and they work great. I'm sure there are other good brands, but I have had nothing but good luck with NOCO for both jump starters and battery chargers.
Thanks.  Mine battery starter is very old and probably doesn't work anymore.  Looks like that one is a lot smaller also.

I have heard people say if they could just cut out the first hour of multiple Ezra Millers the movie was pretty good.  Of course, I also heard they should have just made it a Batman movie.  I have not seen it. 

Reports are they spent a good bit more money than reported.

The Roundtable / Re: Brake Fluid Tester

Thought about getting one for a while because... Tools! Eventually decided if there are enough question marks to prompt testing then it's time for a full flush. For fifteen bucks, though, I could be tempted.

I've got one of those pneumatic bleeder kits, and just flush it every three years when I also do the coolant and PS fluid.

The Roundtable / Brake Fluid Tester

Out of the loop as usual, I have never heard of these brake fluid testers - $15 on the amazon.

Brake fluid is pretty low on my maintenance list, so something like a $50 tester wouldn't float my boat, but for $15, I might get one of these since I have several vehicles that use brake fluid.

I had a mental problem with my battery.  I would start to get out of the car to go in  the house, do a checklist to make sure dome lights were out and windows closed, turn the key back on to close a window left open, do so, then leave the car with the key in the ignition and "ON."

Come back a couple of days later to find the battery dead..  The usual rigamarole for a restart, ask neighbor, jump it, and curse my fool stupid self.

Found a battery store on 44th in Wheat Ridge, reconditioned battery there was $45, guaranteed for X months, left it in the car.  Pulled the same dumb stunt, used the reconditioned battery for a start. Patted myself on the back for being smart again.

Same rule as for backup guns:  "One is none, two is one."

No.  Clearly you should die since you’re a Gaia hating white racist.

He should die by torture since he's also old. Old white men are the worst.

So, I worked since I was 11 or 12 till I was 52. Paid taxes on my income since I was 15. Have been 100% disabled since 2009. Get a VA disability monthly benefit of < $400. Shouldn't _I_ get a living wage level pension?

No.  Clearly you should die since you’re a Gaia hating white racist.

The Roundtable / Re: Heritage Manufacturing 22 LR Lever Gun

I'm not impressed or interested. They're priced higher than Henry. For me to be interested, they'll have to drop the price by at least $100.

And the loop is too far away from the stock. It just doesn't look right (to me).
The Henry Classic 22 has an MSRP of $417 with straight blued finish.  The Golden Boy MSRP is $636.  Pretty close in price.  We will have to see where the retail price lands after a while.  And see how well these rifles function and shoot.

Personally, I don't know if I will ever get one of these, but I like seeing another manufacturer making lever guns. 

Plus, Heritage revolvers are in just about every store that sells guns since they are generally cheap.  I hope they produce these in numbers and they end up in the same stores.  Of course, that assumes they work reasonably well.
