Just a geographical note Frank.  Phil lives in Campbell River on
Vancouver
Island, not Powell River, which is across the Strait on the Sunshine
Coast.

Geography/Battery Voodoo lesson begins here:

Don't ya love oxymoron's? I once believed Oxymoron was for treating
teenage skin problems or one of them super-duper oxygen-rich peroxide
soaps advertised on TV-Infomercials. Shows how much I know.

Seems Battery manufacture marketing departments use tactics learned
from the explorer Captain George Vancouver and I gotta include Juan
Francisco de la Bodega y Quadra. Quadra was really here first
[european] but, Vancouver had the better marketing department.
Vancouver was physiologically depressed at the time and named a place
close-bye, "Desolation Sound". Spiffying-up his travel-journal for the
folks back home in England, he named an equally beautiful spot down the
coast a bit, "The Sunshine Coast". Depressed hell, he was Bi-polar....
oh, and oxymoronic too.
Rains like hell on both places! Jump in your Vanagons and come see
"Beautiful British Columbia"... in the rain! Ensure your batteries are
fully charged cuz your lights, wipers, blower-fan, rear-defroster,
furnace (if installed) and 12VDC electric-blankets will all be ON the
whole time.... End of story.... wait for the Movie ... opening soon....
along with our new favorite "Little Miss Sunshine". Sheeze,
marketing-hype, all i want is a good deep~battery!
