I don't know if Ron actually pulled a load from the battery. What I kwow for sure is that the battery showed that it was reversed charged when it was hooked up to a multimeter.
The reverse battery protection on our circuit board would have prevented us from drawing anything but a few milliAmps.
It was a brand new 1.2 Amp-Hour sealed lead acid battery (Yuasa model NP1.2-12).
I think the battery is just fine now.
Very strange indeed. To be honest I had no idea that the chemistry could be made to work the other way round -- learn something new every day.
