Gerry makes a decent winter coat. I believe the one i have is called a 3-in-1. Has a removable inner coat which is fleece lined and the insulated part. The outer shell is waterproof. I have had it over 10 years now and still looks like new.

Thank you. This is honestly the best advice I have gotten in a long time. J Love the momentum analogy Matt. J, If everyone is in good health and has a roof and food, what more can you ask for? Life is like the lottery, if you don't play, you can't win. Nothing in life is a guarantee.

Craftsman sockets are more than sufficient for a home set. Have had one set for over 15 years and another set over 10. Never have broke/striped a socket. Their ratchets suck though. Have a pile of broken ones. As mentioned a few times by others, the Snap-on 3/8" swivel head ratchet stubby is my fav also.

Slept like a baby after full body and foot massage yesterday. And an hour of soaking in the vapor caves.

Optima Red or Yellow Top for under hood
I have ran a few pairs of Optima redtop 34's. I was always disappointed with their short life span. (less than 3 years) Replaced them once and had the same results. Was in a dual setup with HO alt. ALL the local stores quit carrying them about 5 years ago here, when Optima changed their warranty policy. If your still set on buying one and the deal falls through at Pep Boys, this is a great site with free shipping. http://www.1st-wholesale-batteries.com/ I am going on 5 years with my XS Power 3400 and is still doing great. So for me the extra cost up front was worth it. And personally if it was my ride, I would buy the matching brand for the front. The battery's will work more in harmony with matching plate designs.

Amp and alternator questions
A fuse in between the alt and battery is cheap insurance. That being said I have ran several HO alts and have never fused the run between the alt and battery. So if it makes you feel warm and fuzzy, and lets you sleep at night to fuse it, then go ahead. otherwise I wouldn't worry about it.

Wht tool are you planning on using to cut? That is some very thing material. I was going to cut the tube on the miter and planned on clamping the sheet to the miter to make its cut. I have always just turned the blade around for cutting thin non-wood material.

Amp and alternator questions
240 amps at 12 volts is 2880 watts. Will produce 3450 watts at 14.4 volts. So yes a 240 amp alt should run your 2500 watt amp no problem.

A few hours of reading and i about have my head wrapped around the math involved.- Welcome to the IHoP v.2
I love mine. They can be had with about a half a dozen different combos of lens as a package for about the same as just the body. i will most likely pick up the 200 lens you suggested, for the wife, for indoor, low light. BUT being i can score another lens for next to nothing with the body, what would you suggest for a good landscape lens? I personally am WAY more interested in photographing geological sites than anything else.- Welcome to the IHoP v.2
And your surprised because...?- Welcome to the IHoP v.2
Would probably not work with your smaller size. Although the idea is good.- Welcome to the IHoP v.2
The 70D body is looking like a good candidate. Almost as stellar as the 7D in the AF department. Plus better for video.- Welcome to the IHoP v.2
