AAAhahahahahaha Rabit..
This is analyzing equipment, mostly for more expensive batteries but it also can test simple commercial batteries.
But if you want to analyze a battery correctly you got to have one of these. For simple tests a multimeter is fine.

Military and space facilities use that on handheld tranceiver batteries and also UAV's, it's an overkill at home. But it's perfect if you have one to test.

Sitting down, facing forward.
Unfortunately Rabbit, if you really want the true condition of a battery, that's the best way to go without a doubt. The expense is certainly on the high side, but when you're as detail oriented (....?) as I am about this stuff, it's still in the realm of possibilities. I guess I'm kind of compulsive, too LOL.

Thats just like those crazy High School Algebra questions: If a train leaves San Fransisco going East at 60 miles and hour and another train leaves New York heading West at 50 miles and hour, where will they meet? Who the :evil: even cares?:laugh:

That is why I buy my base at 24 nic in 100% PG. Then if I add an equal amount of VG, it comes out 50/50 PG/VG @ 12% nic. I use the KISS principal (principle? can't spell either) anything else at my age is just too darned complicated.

Rabbit, I was a most excellent student, but those types of problems were my kryptonite. My head would pop up, and I'd start scanning around for the train schedule....

Let me get this straight? I paid $9.95 for my Trustfire Multifunctional Charger and the UBA5 is on sale for $995.00 or 100 times more expensive just to charge a $10.00 battery for a $50 PV Mod. OK $9.95 or $995.00? Is that a choice or what?

How about some autumn foliage on this dreary, gray day?

Don't tell my clients but after cleaning two houses today, I can barely move. Fortunately, there is a 5 cheese pizza from Costco in the fridge for tonight's dinner. I was fine until I drove home for 45 minutes and then when I went to get out of the truck I could barely move:) My muscles will loosen up again by tomorrow [I hope]. Ah the joys of getting older.

Feel better soon, Lizzie. Maybe some ibuprofen would help?

He's not getting any younger either. He did a big welding job yesterday and fell asleep by 7:30pm:)

I put my tobacco recipes on my blog for ECF so I would have them in one place. If you want to make a comment on what you do just click on the blog entries number under my name and it will take you there.

I can't believe that when I lived in Vegas I could clean three houses a day!!!! Now, I don't like to do more than one but every other Monday I have 1 1/2 jobs.

Okay - I know this might be self-centered given everything that people have posted :facepalm: . . . However, I just got back from "My" 3 month Lab Work Doctor's appointment . . . AND - Just have to tell Ya' all, I'm a little overjoyed with "My" results :D . . . Cholesterol Total: Down 20 Points (106 - used to be 249), especially cut Triglycerides down another 53 points (97 from 293) . . . Also - Blood Pressure use to be on average 125/80 is now 116/71 . . . AND - The best is my A1c (Diabetic Number): Drop a full point + From 7.3 to 6.0 (started at 9.0) . . . SO Overall - After fighting for the past 6 years to get these numbers down - NOT BAD . . . :thumbs:
(I just wish "My" body felt as good - as "Liz" said, "Ah the joys of getting older" does not help . . .:blink:)

Congrats, Uncle, on getting all the numbers down. Triglycerides are hard to get down, at least for me. In my 20's mine were ranging between two and three thousand, now down under two hundred.

Lizzie, a friend of mine used to get two aspirin and a glass of water, take them to his wife who would say "What is that for?". His answer was "For your headache". She would say "But I don't have a headache!". He would then say "GREAT!"
