One of Holmes on Homes sponsors is DeWalt. It was funny to see Mike
Holmes building a suspended deck and the director of the segment doing
a fast edit of Mike and the boys, in rapid succession, calling out for
batteries. "BATTERY!"......BATTERY!"...and so on...
And I'm thinking: "this can't be pleasing the DeWalt people..."


Maybe, but considering that his bread and butter is most often the
larger home reno jobs, it's expected that batteries will deplete
fairly often. Considering that wall electricity is usually available,
but not usually used, DeWalt is surely getting their advertising quota
covered.
