Went out to plow some snow. Got to the plow truck. Open the door. Insert key. Turn key. [size=7:a4779761ab]**crickets chirping**[/size:a4779761ab]
Battery was totally dead. Dug my way to the closest charger, which I was pretty sure wouldn't work as it's all digital. Nope, didn't work. Won't work on a dead battery. So, off to find the VERY old manual charger. Wasn't as hard to get to as expected. Now the battery has enough charge for the big charger to finish the job.
The moral of this story (and there's 2)
1. ALWAYS keep a manual battery charger within easy grasp
2. NEVER try to plow snow on a Monday
