Well…damn…the battery was dead in the car when I tried to go out to get the paper today and my battery box was dead, too….not sure if it will hold a charge enough to get it started a little later but I put the trickle charger on the battery and I don’t think that is going to help…so I had to ride the bike out to get the paper this morning and I’m glad it is over 50 out there right now…had some problems with the cut off switch falling apart the other day and must not have gotten it put back together right…so, I’m not sure what I’m going to do if the box won’t start it later…can’t ask the neighbors for a jump with this whole virus thing going on…crap, crap, crap….I can get a 50 amp charger at HF for about 30 bucks if I can get it started that will start the car and that would replace the battery box since I have electricity in the garage…..okay….just can’t do this right now…need to try to get the car started….okay, that was weird…hooked the battery box up to the car and it started right up after only a half hour of charging….and I checked out the switch and it seems to be working so I’m going to put it back in after I let the car run for a half hour or so…man, that takes a load off but I still may get a good charger just in case…after all, I’m going to get 1200 bucks in the next few weeks and any house I buy will have electricity in the garage so I won’t need the portability of the battery box any more….so, what else is going on? Okay…I think I may just stop here and get a bike ride in before the wind comes up….more later….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
