I just had to replace one with total failure after 6 months, it won't hold *any* charge at all, and Sears isn't willing, so far, to refund my purchase price and pay the tow truck needed to rescue me. Used to be good stuff, but they're just cashing in on the name. -- Good luck, Buddy Buddy Donnelly donnellynopsamabay.rr.com
