Ya know, using a fresh car battery for problem solving worked so well that I decided to just leave it on. Problem solved.

I have a battery box on the back of my TW200 for a storage container. My motorcycle battery went dead and I didn't have the $$$$$$ for a battery at the time. I had an old car battery laying around and it fit right in the battery box. I ran it for about a month until I bought a new motorcycle battery.

Different story: I gave someone a jump and they disconnected the jumper cables wrong and fried something on my van. Anyway, I had a portable solar panel and on top of the van it went for a while. It was fine driving in the daytime but I was limited at night driving. I ride bikes 90% of the time so I was in a hurry for repair. I replaced the alternator and no fix. I put the old alternator back on and started real trouble shooting. After some time I figured out the real culprit. The main wire from the alternator got burned. The fusible link didn't even give way.

Had to tote a fresh battery up to the float barn for the fork lift. When I looked at the perch I was reminded of the many mentions of using a car battery for testing things, and couldn't resist the gag. Snatched the cables from my Valiant, and took the pic, chuckling most of the time.

I don't know how, so would anyone like to paste a comment on the pic itself for a meme?
