They're just more heavy duty and resistant to corrosion.

If your battery cables have already been previously chopped off and don't have an eyelet-style terminal to bolt onto the marine terminals, this one is probably better: https://m.canadiantire.ca/#/products...10P&quantity=1
the brass version is $6.99 each, vs $3.99 of the lead style.
Both lead and brass are up there in the top in terms of conductivity, depending on your sources they will say one is better than the other, but there isn't much difference. I like using the brass ones because it's more solid in construction, and all late model cars use plated brass terminals from the factory anyway.
Oh yeah, if you get the red and black painted terminals, make sure you check the contact surfaces aren't painted over, because sometimes you get defective ones like that lol. Just clean it through with a terminal brush.

Bought something from Best Buy for boxing day and since it wasn't available in any stores they'd have to send it to me from the warehouse using Canada Post. Expected delivery is tomorrow, and I've been tracking the shipment and the last time I saw it, it was "In Transit" (like a few hours ago). Just checked it now and the tracking number doesn't even work. Anyone know why it doesn't work now?

My Best Buy package was out for delivery at 7:47 and then they needed to 'verify recipient's address. Possible delay.' at 7:51 
I'll be patient. I didn't order much anyway. Would have really preferred shipping right to a Best Buy store but that option wasn't available. .png "Y U NO...?")

Price of gas is getting ridiculous up here again, I just saw regular at 1.35 litre and premium is 1.53.
It's only 1.03 per litre for premium in Blaine.

I've finally hit a new low point for myself 
I parked at an impark garage on Broadway beside Original Joe's and wasn't aware that they closed at 10PM. I found that out at 10:18pm. I'm a dumb ass...
My question is if anyone knows if they just ticket all the cars in there when closing or tow them out all at once? I'm heading there tomorrow at 6am hopefully when they'll be open and am praying that my car will still be there.
Going on a long shot here, but has anyone ever done anything this stupid and able to give me some insight as to what to possibly expect? I know I'll have a ticket for sure which I'm happy to pay, I'd just hopefully like to get there and not find that my cars been towed. | |

Parked in an underground impark lot downtown and when I got back to my car, the gate was closed. Called them and they sent a guy over to open the gate for us. Didn't even get a ticket lol.

The question is what are you trying to use it for? Reset/ Diagnostic/ Reprogramming?
What kind of car are you trying to use it on.
These things are extremely basic, so depending on what you are trying to do you might not be able to get the info you need. Quote:
