Now you've piqued my curiosity. What were you doing with it in your
airplane at the time?

Hurried up and took it out and threw it on the ramp
( outside driveway )...


More like "parking lot" -- taxiways would be analagous to driveways, don't
you think?

Good thing you got it out of there. What airport and what are you flying?

Tester,
Please occupy yourself in your free time by checking for an open place on a
ladder for another sticker. I will have the doctor check your meds.

I suffered anxiety and frustration over inability to purchase replacement
parts for new saw. Fortunately, the condition quickly passed without medical
intervention.

Hmmmmmmmm, how can a falling battery cause death? They dont even
weight one pound ???? It can really f*** up the battery, and maybe
even give the person a sore toe. But DEATH !!!!
(pretty stupid).


How about if you were on a ladder or scaffold and it feel and hit someone on
the head?

Default WARNING. DeWALT And Black and Decker Tools causing serious Injury and Death.

Most likely it wouldn't cause more than a nasty bump but the lawyers
want warnings on everything, no matter how ridiculous, obvious or
overstated they might be, so that when someone does something really
stupid they can point to the label and say, "You were warned!" The
reason for this is that if there is no label predicting dire
consequences for use of a product, the plaintiff's attorney will claim
that the company "knew or should have known" that their product could
cause serious injury or death and is negligent in failing to warn their
dolt of a customer that use of their product could cause such injury.
Someday we're likely to see a label on bricks warning us that we could
trip over them or cause damage by throwing them through a window. As
long as courts and juries are willing to tolerate and grant huge awards
for stupidity more and more dire warnings will appear.

I think it was the OP who inserted "injury and death" after every item.
Lawyers do not want warnings on everything. People who want to avoid
meeting customers' lawyers place warnings on everything. :^)

The lawyers for Black and Decker and DeWalt certainly DO want warnings on
everything.

I'm reminded of the guy that got a large award for loosing the tips of his
fingers when he picked up his lawnmower to cut the hedge. He clamed that
since there wasn't a warning for him not to do that, he was due
compensation.

I dont know about that B+D and DeWalt stuff...BUT, let an 18Volt Bocsh or
Milwaukee battery fall a story and hit someone on the head...I would be
willing to bet that someone might have a serious injury, and if the sharp
end hits...all bets might be off..

You're missing the point. The poster is a troll. He took a bunch of CPSC
recalls, some of them over 4 years old, and doctored them up to make it more
dramatic. The purpose was not to warn you of injury and death but to spur a
lengthy debate. It worked. :^)

Okay, you're on your handglider. Up over the crowded city.
Doing a little drilling. then no! the battery PLUNGES.
2 miles. faster and faster. Thousands of miles a hour. The
sonic boom alone is deafening babies as it hits the top of a
building, tearing through dozens of people and shattering the
foundation causing it to fall over and knock over 14 other buildings
including a children's hospital and a school for the gifted.

Seems clear to me. What's your problem? Hate children?



Sadly enough, I have seen plenty of injuries of the years from falling
tools.

Assuming we are talking about falling batteries and not failing
batteries, almost anything falling from a significant height can kill.
A friend of mine was walking down the street (we're in Manhattan here)
and a drill smashed into the pavement less than 10 feet from him.
There was nothing visible in the apartment building above him. If it
hit him, he was dead. If it was a one pound battery, he was dead.
