Battery load tester?
Anyone have experience with these? Best ones for a reasonable price? Thanks DICK

The three wise men of battery testing
HYDROMETER
ADJUSTABLE LOAD CARBON PILE TESTER
IMPEDENCE TESTER
When I test I use all three. Hydrometer, impedence then load test. None can test what the other two do. An impedence tester may or may not pick up on dendrite plate-to-plate shorts but the load tester will if used correctly. Batteries that pass all three tests have a low rate of incidence of approaching failure.
