Battery drain test.
      12/05/2008 22:52

Does anyone recall the battery drain test described in YM or PBO earlier this year? I think the procedure was to put a load of 5% of rated capacity on a fully charged battery for 10 hours providing the voltage under load does not drop below 10.xx volts.

I cannot remember what the minimum voltage was and currently I am on the boat but my pile of mags is at home.
