In regards to fly fishing in BC, our northern winters allow us time to take stock of what we have, replenish supplies, re-organize tackle boxes and plan for this year's fishing trips. If you are like me, you took your fishing gear out of your vehicle after your final trip and put it into hiding for next season. Let me tell you, next season is almost here!

There are several types of battery in use at the present time and each must be treated differently. There are Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cad), Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) and Lithium-ion. Ni-Cad is old technology and hence only found in ancient handsets, so I will not be covering them in this article. NiMH batteries perform much better than Ni-Cad, typically giving 30% more talk time, but Lithium are thinner and give even higher performance. I will be concentrating on Lithium-ion as it is the most used modern mobile phone battery to date. Check which type of battery your phone has before following any of the following.

There are two things that kill a notebook battery; heat and operating outside its voltage specifications, overcharge or undercharge in plain English. They are easy to avoid if you can identify the sources. Heat has two big group of players internal sources such as the processor graphics card hard disk drive and the internal lithium stock resistance of the battery itself.

When it's time to buy a new lithium ion battery, be sure you're buying one that's new (as in recently produced). Just like fruit has a shelf-life, so do batteries and just like you want to buy fresh produce, you also want to invest in "fresh" lithium ion cells. Check the date-code on the battery or packaging to ensure you're not buying a pack that's been degrading for a year on some shelf.

Additional features include a built-in L.E.D. light on the drill which will help illuminate the working area when sufficient light is not available. Plus, a phosphorescent bumper ring which glows in the dark will allow the driver to be found even in the darkest environment without additional lighting. Lastly, the driver comes as a kit with two compact Lithium battery stocks-Ion batteries, a 15 minute rapid charger and a convenient tool case for carrying the tool and accessories.

Apple has an official out-of-warranty battery replacement program Lithium mines Ontario for shipping in the United States(see Europe and copyright pricing The policy requires that you send in your iPod any model and Apple will change the battery and ship it to you for plus handling and shipping. Technically, Apple in reality exchanges your whole unit with an equivalent original model or factory-refurbished model in a brand new cover, with its own 90-day service warranty; if it was previously engraved by Apple, it will be engraved again.

Things certainly have changed over the years. There are enough options available today to make a person's head spin. There are even more variations and innovations in the works as I write this. While the scope of this guide will not be able to cover every type of power drill in existence, we are going to try to cover most of the bases. My goal in writing this article is to help those who might be having difficulty deciding which type of drill they need, so let's get started.

Recharge the battery to full again and repeat the above steps a few more times. This will allow you to use the battery for a longer time and you can do this no more than once a month. Replacement batteries can be expensive and stretching out their use when you are on a budget can help.
