What kind of a mess am I going to get into? It either works or it don't
and if it don't work to the customer's satisfaction you simply give
them another one. After all, you don't have an awful lot invested in
either the original or the replacement. There was a guy here in OKC
a few years ago that would warranty them for as many years as you
wanted. It just cost more for each additional year you wanted it
guaranteed. Same old battery regardless of whether it had a 30 day
warranty or a 5 or 6  year warranty.
