I have learned that US Battery ( or their Independent Lab ) does this for their "Cycles vs DOD" charts
* 6V Golf discharge at 75 Amps
* 8V Golf discharge at 56 Amps
* 12V Marine DC discharge at 25 Amps
I am not sure if these discharge rates are specific for only US Battery or are "standard discharge rates" based upon the batteries AH rating. It appears that we have to pay $ to obtain the exact steps of the BCIS-06 Battery Test. Apparently, the specifics are on a "need to know basis" and they do not feel the we need to know how they actually test their batteries. "Trust us" ... wink-wink
