    6TLs versus big box mart replacements

    Guys, thanks. That's just what I wanted to hear. Bill, I like the Mart of Wal reference. Cliff, I was just going to fab something up to accept smaller batts. I will be battery shopping at the big box mart this weekend! Oh boy!

    Deuce tool box (on the cheap)
