An excellent compilation.
Just one *tiny* comment...
(BTW: I've been in the industrial battery business for 32 years)
Even though Enersys purchased the Exide battery and charger line...
Since the Exide brand name still exists (seperately)...Enersys can no longer
use the name "Exide".
As of just recently...Enersys must now call it's Exide Ironclad batteries
and chargers...simply "Ironclad".
The story is long and complicated but it's almost like saying that General
Motors now produces Fords
and Ford now makes Chrysler's!
Over the years I have either worked for (or with) Chloride, Exide, Yuasa and
Enersys.
Though the companies I have worked for have been bought out time and
again...
In those 32 years I have not actually changed jobs! The jobs have changed
beneath my feet, so to speak!
