    Craftsman cordless battery question

    I just bought a Craftsman cordless tool with 2 19.2V batteries. I already have several of those same batteries from other Craftsman tools. Question is, if I leave my 2 new batts alone, could they possibly last indefinately until the day I do need them? Thanks. PS-they're not the new lithiums

Before I bought this shop, it was not used for automotive, so this machine, with a scotch pad type pad did a good job of cleaning the floor before I waxed it a few yrs ago.

    Anyone make a good wireless door bell/intercom?

    I'm looking for something so I can be notified of someone at the front door of my home while I'm out back in the garage. I got one a while back, but the sound was terrible, and there was a slight delay that made it useless. Does anyone know of a quality unit that really works well? Thank you
