i was all geared up for another good 3 days wrok, the weather looks ok for the 3 days ( wel tuesday is light rain, but i have a big house that gets done in the rain, thats due, so that was my tuesday planed )
took daughter to school
got home, got changed and went to garage to get battery
picked it up, the handle snapped clean off, bounced on the drive and split open, acid everwhere, the stink was really bad as it ate into the driveway
, washed drive down with water in the hopse that it would dispearse the acid a little
put battery in bucket and took it straight to the recycling place, dropped it off and i spotted a rather large container full of car batteries
i put a small battery in my bucket, its 44 aph ( which is a very nice size )
i get to start work at 11
anyways, i crack on and get my days work done before the battery dies
even though the 44 aph is a very nice size, its a little too small, i used 7 25L barrels and it was dead, i normally only use 4 - 6 barrels, but on some of my houses i do up and down its handy to have that little extra "in the tank"
get some and my drive is white, the acid looks like its taken all the colour out of the tarmac
i now need to order a 85 aph leisure battery and get it here pretty sharpish
