• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Dead battery after random person turned my hazard lights on

Buy a Rugged Geek battery pack from Lamonster Garage and carry it as part of you tool kit. I purchased it for protection on tours and have used it a number of times including when my first Spyder battery gave up the ghost, when my wife's car battery did likewise, and even helped a former Navy damsel in distress on the side of a road who couldn't believe an old fart Marine on a motorcycle could jump start her car.
 
There must be a Batteries Plus in Champlin.

T.P.

There is, I ended up running to Batteries Plus and grabbing their cheap battery last night after spending the day searching for a lithium battery where everyone was either out of stock or had a week or two delay in shipping.
 
I ordered a Scosche PBJ300-1 300A battery pack off Amazon yesterday after reading reviews. Then Amazon had to mess with me, an order showed up on my account I hadn't made... so at 2am I was on the phone trying to figure it out.... they finally realized it was a replacement issued for an order on a different account that they accidentally keyed into mine, so she cancelled it..... and because it was already in a box....along side my jumper pack, it cancelled that too :banghead: I can't seem to catch a break LOL

Nice thing about the Scosche is they have a cable you can wire to the battery that plugs into their pack's jump port, and they also include an adaptor to go from that cable to a trickle charger SAE connector. So I will have that as my first option, with my second option being a 3rd party jump using the external jump post I ordered and am wiring in.... so either way, I don't have to disassemble anything for a jump.
