Bob,be sure to let the rest of us know what you find. I've had now checks and now problems in the (nearly) six years since I put the 31 AGMs in as starting batteries. By-the-way, that is all they do -- start the engines. And, I am charging them with the Delco alternators that came with the engines. DavidO

As far as the state they are in many yards are now switching to conductance meters rather than just a load test as it gives a more precise reading of the batteries ability to be conductive. While a simple voltage test and load test may show ok it will not show if a cell is going bad till it's real bad. Last year I purchased one ( not cheap ) and it has told me batteries that were 11.5 volts were still good so I charged them on a smart charger and they indeed were just in need of a charge. FYI one of my customers has a single 8d AGM that is eight years old and working fine It is however on a gas engine. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "UnifliteWorld" group.
