This Bosch tool is great, but the power supply (BC004) is notorious for dying after 10 yrs. I've repaired it multiple times—but I am tired of fixing it. I've replaced resistors, capacitors and even one MOSFET on the PCB, but my patience has run out. You can buy replacement power supplies and even find used ones for 30-40 bucks online, so it must be a hit or miss thing.

Anyways, the two batteries are great and the Impact Driver is great too. If you are a Bosch tool guy, a forum member, and in the Calgary area, these can be yours for the low price of FREE if you pick up. Otherwise, I'll scavenge the motor for a future project and dispose of the batteries next time I go to the landfill. That might be in two months or two days; I have no idea. So if you want these let me know. I can't say how long I will have them as I am in shop cleanup mode again/still/always.

But WAIT...There's More.

I also have a 14" Recovery Hook (Erikson). I have no idea where I got this. I don't recall ever buying one. I never borrow stuff. No one gave it to me. And yet here it is with no memory how I acquired it. It's brand new though. Kinda odd right?

Maybe any of you guys who do off road stuff can use it?

Note to self: Never Drink and Prime.
