It was just about a month ago that, while browsing through various forums on this site, that I came across a thread dealing with battery load testers.... Now I can't find it. Anyone else remember seeing it? I'm looking for information on currently available high quality testers for automotive hobby guys (like me). Thanks in advance.

Thanks guys. buicksWILD - I'll consider that one a good option. Nailhead in a 1967 - I searched for "battery load tester" and "battery test" in the Wrenching Secrets forum, the Street/Strip 400/430/455 forum and this forum, but no luck. I'll keep looking, though.
