RE: Rubber Lever End Thingies

I have recommended to several people that have asked, NOT to retire in Dec thru April. When you are no longer working, the last thing you need is to be imprisoned in the house due to bad weather. You'll want to be able to get out of the house and do stuff everyday, for the first 6 months at least. Like install a set of Rlets on your CB in a nice warm garage.

That be good advice for a cold climate, Ferret. It's people who were very engrossed in work and never really had hobbies who find retirement most difficult, I suspect. We have to work at it to find things to replace work.

Is that what happened? The RLETs got bored in the -8C Canadian winter and decided to bond to the imprisoned CB outside?

The red boots probably don't leak. The RLETs has a little hole in its bulb.

Warning PB: I am on the Dark Side (I think?). I feel the same. The CB has never felt better being in idle storage with the RLETs. That is some strong power there.
