Does anyone know who has the equipment to do a discharge test?

It applies a constant 75 amp load to the batteries. The discharge equipment tracks battery voltage and runtime which can then be compared to the rated runtime of the batteries. For example, the Trojan T105s are rated to run 115 minutes at 75 amps.
