Dear Paul,
You said "If you want to measure the battery capacity, discharge it using a constant load (like a bulb or a resistor) and measure the time for the output voltage to drop to about 12V."
Can you kindly explain what you mean by that. I understand discharge it using a constant load. But what do you mean by measure its capacity please ? Does that mean measure how much the battery is CAPABLE of handling. Or how much charge it CURRENTLY contains ?
Sorry im asking so many questions for such a simple concept as i dont know much about this.
