Re: Looking for Canadian Supplier of SLA Batteries

["Crash Gordon" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The price at ADI for 1270s has skyrocketed to 19.50 (that's amost 100%
increase in a few months)!! Supposedly due to China buying up lead. Who
knows. You can still get them cheaper if you complain.
