They have jobs, problems, responsibilities, families, and all of that non-burning man stuff to get back to and make sense of. Unlike the...

Re: Help w/AMG deep cycle marine battery

What tester are you using?

If the voltage is fine then run it, you should be able to test run them with your loads now and see how they hold up.

I have a problem with some of these testers and automatic battery chargers that tell you the battery is junk, they lie, a lot.
