"The purpose of battery testing is to estimate the end of battery  
life. Automotive technicians are most familiar with CCA, a measurement  

that reflects engine cranking but does not always predict the end of  
battery life correctly. The leading health indicator of a battery is  
capacity. So we ask, “At what capacity should the battery be replaced?”"
