Some time ago, there was  discussion about the importance of testing or
otherwise ensuring battery capacity for those with electrical powered EFI or
Ignition.  Also related was the note that starting power is not a sufficient
indicator of sustaining capacity.  It appeared that either LOAD testing of
the battery or periodic replacement were the two favored approaches.  Load
testing being the easiest and least expensive if you had a LOADing device.

I notice in the DAMARK catalog a 100 amp battery load tester for $19.99
tests six and twelve volt batteries and I have ordered one.  If anyone else
is interested the part number is  B-40440-735122 and the web site that it
can be ordered from by catalog is www.damark.com  if interested.  No vested
interest in the company or product.
