This video discusses household battery recycling, focusing on common types like AA and AAA batteries used in remotes and toys. We cover how to handle "dead batteries" and the importance of responsible "waste recycling" for items such as "button battery" and "aa batteries". A quick "battery test" can determine if your old batteries are still usable, ensuring proper "battery safety" for all household members.

I don't know why my new Mr. Heater Big Buddy keeps turning off or refusing to light up when I connect it to a 20 lb propane tank. I have a Mr. Heater 12 foot hose and fuel filter. A viewer suggested that the oil buildup in the hose is the problem. To get it started again I have to use compressed air and blow out the heater connections and it will normally crank right up. To test out my viewers suggestion, I bought Mr. Heater Fuel Keg refillable 1 lb bottles and their refill adapter. I will test it out and follow up with a video in the near future.

If you have home video security cameras or security systems, you definately need to at least have the basic subscription that lets you access footage. Just in case! Trez discusses his experience with a few of the more popular cameras on the market. Interior, exterior and doorbell cameras are easy to install and the subscription plans are very reasonable.

I don't know why I didn't think of this sooner. The perfect gift for your your children and grandchildren. A boring combo rechargeable batteries with a charger. Their parents will either love or hate the gift. It is a great educational tool too.

For years I have been trying to use my garage for outdoor winter projects and have ended up freezing and punting my projects until it warms up. This year I think I found a heater that will warm my space up and make it useable. I went with a propane heater by Mr. Heater and I sure hope it keeps me warm. It also doubles as an indoor heater should we lose power or our furnace this winter. It is safe to use and will warm up a couple of rooms to keep us comfortable.

Some of my Craftsman V20 lithium-ion batteries are not powering my tools. They show fully charged by their chargers, the on-battery LEDs show fully charged and my Ohm meter shows 21 volts. I have three models of chargers, a full size CMCB102, a mid sized model CMCB101 and the smallest model CMCB1104. I'm suspecting the CMCB101 is the culprit. When the batteries are fully charged, the lights go off where on the other chargers the green LED goes from blinking to solid when fully charged. This is my story on troubleshooting and how I have gotten my batteries to restart.
