POOF!!! >> >> >>joel >>(alias Lucky Pierre) >> Once I saw a worker in his auto battery shop testing a fully charged brand new car battery. I did not see him pulling a meter or tester anything like that. Instead he hooked up one end of a jumper to one end of the battery. The jumper is the kind we use when our cars do not go and had to beg others to give us a jump start, you know what I am talking about. The guy grabed the other end and hit the other end of the battery. It's like a thunder in front of you, a momentary white out. Before I realized what happened he disconnected the jumper and picked that battery for a sale to a customer.
