Re: 12V Battery Maintenance

First and foremost, don't leave a lead-acid battery sitting around with little to no charge. They'll sulfate and then be mostly useless. Not instantly, but over a few hours.

After that, I have no idea. We generally run through batteries on the practice bot and see which ones seem good. A more objective testing methog would be a good thing.
