What happens here

After charging the new battery, Stanley compares the functionality of the new Roto Shovel to the original one. He attaches the new battery to the original unit, which still fails to operate, confirming that the original unit itself is defective. He then attaches the new battery to the new Roto Shovel, which functions correctly. He notes that the Roto Shovel requires a full battery charge (approximately 1.5 hours) to operate effectively. He concludes that the issue was indeed with the original Roto Shovel unit, not its battery.

Goal: Confirm the new Roto Shovel is functional and the old one is defective.

all right we'll put this one back together and then we will test it out okay got the good one next to the old one [Music] oh crap that's in reverse oh this is the forward reverse button [Music] okay well we know that the defect is in the unit not the battery because this is the old battery takes an hour and a half to charge these up so we're going to get a fresh charge on these to make sure they're completely 100 full then we're going to see how long this one will hold up
