[QUOTE="Huevos, post: 598706, member: 301161"] It's no good checking the battery with a multimeter. You need attach the multimeter, take a voltage reading, then to apply a load of at least 0.5A and take another voltage reading. There should be almost no difference in the voltage between the two. Just because the battery will run something else doesn't mean it's not faulty. For example one cell could be a dead short when under load. [/QUOTE]
