Spent $200 on a 'certified' battery cart that died after 2 shifts

Bought it from a guy off Craigslist who said he used it at a small hangar. Worked fine for a day and a half, then the charger board smoked out. Opened it up and found a bunch of corroded terminals and shot wiring. Total waste. Anyone else get burned buying ground gear secondhand?

Pulled a similar deal on a tug I found at a farm auction once...

Robin, you and me both need to buy a lottery ticket with our luck. My last used battery cart lasted about as long as a bag of chips in a break room.
