I have horrible diarrhea at work tonight. I also happened to have to move some stuff around using the fork lift tonight while my intestines were doing somersaults. I think that experience was infinitely preferable than reading the flatulence that Rounders posted in this thread.

It's actually rather easy to ignore. As soon as I see the name I move to the next post. It doesn't have to be on the list.

I've read this entire thread, hoping to address the problem I have, but haven't found anything.

My problem is, I have the battery bolt, but my battery is missing.

No reply requested or required. Move on.

These are batteries that will last 20 years likes the ones discussed in the article about load testing. That I did not put up.

You can load test every 5 years or resistance check, yearly. We do resistance test because it doesn't stress batteries, but it is more expensive due to labor.

Load testing has come about due to regulations.

Again I am not against load testing,it is just not the first thing I do. I trouble shoot.
