I'll be buying a new GIll battery in a couple of weeks. For FlightGear, I think it's probably sufficient simply to model the fact that the battery discharges (very rapidly, during cranking), that the alternator or generator recharges it, that the alternator will not work with a completely flat battery (though a generator will), and that the battery cannot hold as large a charge when it's cold.
