How do I test my 5-year-old battery with a digital multi voltmeter for replacement?
My battery seems to be dying an awfully lot lately if I leave my interior lights on for a few hours while working or if I listen to my tunes with the motor off.My battery is about 5 years or so, how log is the life span of a standard battery with and without a little bump? I here auto zone will test your battery for free. I have a digital multi voltmeter so I figure I can do it myself without letting some punk kid seeing the # 0 gauge cable I have running back to my rear of my van. I can't be sure but don't you just check for voltage drop? I checked the Sears web site to find a recommended battery for my van and they said I needed a 100 AMP replacement. If I chose to upgrade what size should I get to increase playtime with the engine off. I'm not interested in getting a second battery; I am very limited on space this is for a work van. Can someone kindly recommend some good brands/models of battery's and are there any specific brands/models I should stay clear of ? Thanks for any help |
