Hello Joedy,

Your Fluke can be very helpful but isn't too good for measuring battery
capacity. To do it you'll have to wire up a very basic circuit then time the
discharge while measuring voltage with your Fluke. You'd get some decent
data which would be a useful approximation.

However, it'd be a pain. This would be the techno geek approach and easy to
misinterpret. I don't recommend it.

Don't feel bad about your Fluke though. It's fine piece of equipment which
will serve you well. I've had my 77 for twelve years. I've had it calibrated
by a certified lab twice and it was dead on the money both times. Which is
impressive considering that I've zapped it with 5 times it's rated voltage
and exceeded it's current rating several times.

Good luck,
Bill Swingle
