Subject:Source for near-free deep-cycle gel batteries

Hi Everybody:

If you are looking for the subject reference, I suggest going to an
electric-wheelchair shop.

They often take chairs for sale, and slam in new batteries. If they're
selling a used chair they'll put in new batteries regardless of the
condition of the old ones. Old batteries become fishing weights...

I just pulled two deep-cycle batteries of of Karen's scooter (my personal
Direktor), and in my opinion, they were just fine. However, she didn't think
so.....

Anyone near Winnipeg is free to take one. But beware, they still have a ton
of charge on them!

Cheers!
