Hi,
Under OS 10.1 or higher you could use XBattery.
(http://www.kezer.net/shareware/xbattery/)
That is an excellent tool to evaluate batteries. It shows graphs of voltage,
amps (charge and discharge), battery capacity level and raw battery info.
I am not aware of any classic tool providing similar functionality.

I’ve now accumulated 6 Pismo batteries, some new. All hold some sort
of charge.
I would like to evaluate them according to usefulness. All I have is
the Pismo itself, but I can run OS9. It is not feasible for me to
watch the PowerBook until it dies. Is there an application that will
help me evaluate the health?
Thanks in advance.
Battery amnesia (also by Jeremy Kezer) runs in OS9 and has proved
invaluable both to test and to resurrect Pismo batteries in the past,
however it is $10 shareware (I cannot remember the limitations if it is
unregistered, try it and see!)
