The new MR2 battery went REALLY flat due to standing while the bodywork was done, I charged it up, time to test its condition!

The MR2 hadn't been driven for a long time due to the bumpers being taken off for paint and the TRD lip being fitted. My new battery went flat (down to 6 volts). car batteries don't really like that too much and after charging it was time to test my new battery voltage and load tester. Load testing a car battery was easy with this piece of equipment.
