First drag race battery test file available at Manzanita Micro website



I just posted my first drag race battery test data file at
http://www.manzanitamicro.com/download.htm. The file is at the bottom of the
page under Old Genesis.

The file is too large from my point of view so I need some suggestions on
what to eliminate to make it smaller.

To make a summary: The battery is a very old Genesis 38 AHR that only makes
12 Ahr on a reserve capacity test and it was tested at room temperature. The
tester took it to 1088 amps and the voltage dropped to 7.84 volts. The
internal resistance was 5.3 milliohms. The test lasted about 10 seconds and
I only got 8 seconds in the data file.

I will be testing some other batteries as I get time and have space in the
battery oven.
