Hindsight is 20/200. Herb Crowther brought
Myers Motors to REi at Case right when Myers was getting started three years ago. REI was fast on its feet - trends surfaced at REI ahead of the curve. So when I saw the Coke Red NmG at the Cleveland Solar Convention, the only news was that it now used totally DRY batteries. The battery distributor was there too with cut open battery cases so you could lift out the
absorbed glass mat (AGM) lead plates. No hydrogen offgassing, no sulferic acid slopping around. The batteries are made in China. Not Ohio.
Case tossed out Ed Morrison and REI. That was more Cleveland Ignorance.
