For those who may not know...
On the weekend, for amusement, the "found in" 8D AGM deep cycle battery in the Roamer does a lovely job of almost immediately achieving full charge, volt meter reads a lovely 13.2 volts.
But...
Turn off the charger, put the load tester on it, click the switch and POW!
It has 4 volts.
Any boater may just turn off the charger and turn on some significant load to accomplish similar, an old fashioned automotive battery tester optional.
Off to the recycler to recoup some battery money.
