Testing Batteries
 
(Of course, Darden's site says that 200 deep discharge cycles is a good
battery's life span - so if you test it, have you used up one?)


True, but a deep discharge is something that shouldn't be done in
normal practice. IMHO a 50% discharge is sufficient to get a pretty
good idea of capacity. Especially since a 50% discharge is what is
done in normal use.
