I wish you were my neighbor! My current neighbor is 76 years old, an old school work from daylight til dark Electrician/cattle farmer.......and I had to get his "electric" cart moving LOL.

But yea.....to the OP.....your tech is doing pretty good...... I'm a rookie so to speak, and even buying batteries and cables at retail cost I'd make a killing at the cost your talking about.

How do you get them so cheap, are you a distributor because I priced them online and they run $170 to $180 a piece? This guy obviously won't get be getting a tip.

Battery distributors are not strict when it comes to selling. Just about anybody who says they have a business license can get dealer cost on these things.
I used to do these swap outs. Good to hear he is doing a nice job cleaning and putting new cables on

I don't know where you live, but I'm a Trojan dealer and for that price I would drive few hours and would still be grinning when I left. And that would be new cables and all.

I misread the post. It is 8 batteries, but still, he's making pretty good! Don't worry!
