Interesting behavior from PowerSonic battery

Since you have all the batteries in series with the load the voltage drop across the bad battery it appears like the bad battery is being reverse-biased by the good ones. You would see the same kind of result if you replaced the bad battery with a resistor and measured the voltage across it. The bad battery obviously has what is called "High internal resistance". -PC Yep. And the guy at All Pack gave the battery the highly scientific "shake test". Apparently, the innerds dried up and came apart. Sounded like shaking a box of rocks. 5 years of service from the battery, and $23 to replace it in the pack. Will be good to be able to secure the battery in the intended box again rather than having a smaller one out on the shelf behind me.
