[Shop-talk] Am I getting this old already? (Shop content)

[Steven Trovato]

If you can't find want you want, make a point of checking on the 
battery requirements of the digital model.  I find that infrequently 
used items that require a couple of AA cells are not so bad.  It is 
the ones with the hard to find mystery cells that require a search 
all over town that are a pain.

That's one of my complaints with the rechargeable tools available 
today.  As years go by they stop holding a charge and the batteries 
get hard to find or it just stops being cost effective.  Meanwhile, I 
have plug-in tools that my father bought 50 years ago and they still 
work fine.

So there.  Now we both sound old.
