    I've done 4 tons in a day, but not 6. That has got to hurt.

    The worst was when I use to do 3-4 ton by wheel barrow. 4-5 bags at a time across the front yard, down a short hill (stopping was a beatch) and into the basement door one bag at a time to stack.

    Now I say the heck with the front lawn and load up the truck with 25 bags at a time-back up to the basement door.

    Well yeah, that was what my 4 tons was like. However, I used my 4-wheel cart at 5-6 bags at a time. Had the same decline, into garage and then one-by-one hand carried each bag into the basement (stacked on the other side of the house from the door of course). This was when I had the Jeep.

    The last ton I moved was using the Explorer to do 25 bags at a time.

    Great minds - and all that (or, we are getting older and smarter :thumbs:)

    Maybe things settled in that he really f'd his life up with stupidity. Today he should have been going to the Whitehouse, instead he is heading somewhere else.

    Well the HP upstairs finally went belly up in the battery pack area I guess if I want to use it I'll have to buy a new battery pack for it. It is only going on 9 years.

    Nope put an OEM part for $60.19 into it. It is a LI battery pack from days of old. Not going to play with it.

    When you have that long of a run w/ an OEM battery, agree it's worth it to replace w/ same & not mess around with it. :yes:

    Replacing with same after so many moons ago is next to nil especially with OEM:cool:
    People are slowly heading for summer chores and packed away the stoves, I'm still burning nightly:headbang:
    Sn*w is still lingering on the ground but the rain is doing it's thing.
    Lake is still frozen so it will be still awhile before I pack it in:zip:

    Ivanhoe I live on the far end of the supply chain I can probably find un updated wifi routers on the store shelves from years past. Well got one of my 3TB drives spinning and formatted, enough head standing for today. I also found a spot to hold the second one but that is for another day.

    Dell doesnt make the same battery for my laptop anymore so I got one that was a direct replacement on Amazon about a year ago.

    2 weeks ago there is a credit on my Amazon account and an email stating that the battery they sold me was known to either not perform as advertised or to cause fires and to stop using immediately.

    So here I am looking for a 9 cell battery for my Dell XPS 702X again.

    All Dell XPS 702X battery references I have come across say 6 cell. What gives and what exactly is that model?
