Scales: What's with that "red light" on your new NEBO Headlamp Johnny?
.
Johnny Fishburn: You won't believe this Scaley, the red light function keeps bugs away. Ya it really does I tested it in the back yard last night. This will be handy on our fishing trip, and the light is selectable for standarad or high beam; and baby this thing is bright and runs for up to 10 hours or more.
.
Scales: Humm, I guess I better go get one before the trip. I now it can't be too expensive if you bought one...
.
Johnny: NEBO products are high quality...this one just $50.00 at "American Sportsman."
Scales has battery problems and it's getting expensive...
Scales: John can you help me with my drill battery? This one is only a year old.
.
Johnny Fishburn: The basic rules are don't let them sit idle for too long, and use the most advanced charger the Mfgr. offers. Li has a limited life of arond 3 years at capacity so they won't last forever my man.
.
Scales: Ok but can we save this one?
.
Johnny: There is a good chance. Take a look at these simple techniques that don't cost you anything...I know you'll like that...

Johnny Reveals his New Streaming TV Package and Pricing..
.
Scales: Ok out with it! The Guys want to know at the Pub, and so do I!
.
Johnny Fishburn: After much study of the streaming market we decided we needed 1 complete system so we didn't have to subscribe to several services to get what we need.
.
Scales: Right! That sounds good but what does it cost Mr. Wonderful?
.
Johnny: The first 20 days are free on a trial arrangement, then we get a discount as a new customer of $69.00 until late August.
.
Scales: But what happens after late August do they slam you with a huge increase like the cable guys.... and tell me…
Johnny's "Trick Faucet Repair" Tech Tip:
Scales: Ok so which parts fixed that drippy leak in your bathroom? I have the same problem at my place.
.
Johnny: You should always replace the o-ring on the main valve body to keep water from flowing up and around the valve, but here is the "trick to keep in mind," and for you Scaley it's free.
.
Scales: Oh good, you know I like "free" almost as much as you John!
.
Johnny: Down in the bottom of most faucets there is a small rubber seal with a minature spring under it...now if you have standing water in the assembly you might not realize it's there, In fact I made that mistake…
The Ultimate Cell Phone Portable Charger.....According to "Johnny Wizard"
Scales: Look John you've tried other portable chargers without much long term success so what's so great about this one?
.
Johnny Fishburn: This one has a "built in" Apple adapter so you can use it on most every phone in the marketplace.
.
Scales: How's that work?
.
Johnny: See that little "plug on" adapter...just plug it to the charge cable when dealing with an Apple phone and you are all set. It's kept in a storage pocket inside the battery-so everything is kept together for use when you need it. Now there is one technical suggestion!
.
Scales: Ok now here we go I knew there was a catch…
