Well there was this guy changing batteries on a golf cart.
Had 6 very large 6 volt storage batteries wired in series.
He was using a ratchet wrench to remove the battery contact
clamps and while detaching the most postive end first (!)
the ratchet handle touched the frame of the golf cart.

Ever see a Sears ratchet glowing WHITE HOT?

Ya, but... You can take it back and they'll replace it. HI!HI!

Only if you don't melt the part that says "Craftsman".

They do insist that all tools be cooled well below the point of
emitting visible light before return, though.
