I've never had to replace a solar watch battery, yet. Some I suspect I've owned for a decade or more. However I have had to replace the…

These don't contain 18650s, they use 2600mAh 20650 cells. I presume to stop people extracting 18650 cells from them.

Good for you. From Mazda's website, Evolve from $37,632 drive away. Plus not everyone wants to go for a lower grade model.

Yeah but Honda or Nissan with CVT's. Umm, no thanks. I'd take a Mazda with a conventional gearbox over them any day.

I have a 6 sedan and I'd love to get the wagon for the looks and practicality, but I just can't justify the changeover price. Another…

Rogerwilco replied to Helenn on Fanco Infinity-Id DC Ceiling Fan with CCT LED & Remote 48" $299 (Was $469) + Del ($0 to Eastern Metro) @ Ceiling Fans Warehouse
