Viking ceremonial ace ~ 😃

That's a lot of sandpaper :oops:

Now I have to check my attic lightbulbs. I'm sure they are incandescent. Probly been there 40 years.

eBay has incandescent bulbs

Tape. Lots of tape. 😃

Had these for many years. CR-MO from Horrible Fright. Used the daylights out of the most popular sizes doing Triple A roadside.

Harsh !

Only other thing is if dirt and grit has gotten in the bore it might be scored. Especially on the older ones. Don't think that can be fixed.

Probly the o rings. That's about all that is in there. Might just be dirty. Easy to take apart and clean. I fixed a Harbor freight jack that had a piston sticking by doing that.

Too many buttons.

And here's the new one. 18.50 at Lowe's. Works better than the Fluke. Can touch a hot wire and it goes off. Fluke wouldnt do that. Me likey.

I've gotten to where I check stuff that has batteries regularly looking for leaky batteries ☹️

Exactly. I got my first one when I worked for a plumbing outfit. I wanted to know if wires were hot. Or not.

No. I rarely used the thing but had a little job to do. Pushed the button and it made this odd sound. So was gonna put in some new batteries and surprise olde ones were leaking. Put in new ones and it worked fine. That was a couple weeks ago.

Tte greenlee I had worked flawlessly This Fluke thing not so much.
