Nothing wrong with a good engineer battle.

from big bang theory lol

Sheldon: Good morning, Friend Howard. Friend Raj. I see you gentlemen are enjoying beverages. Perhaps they would taste better out of these (coffee cups)

Raj: World’s Greatest Astrophysicist?

Sheldon: Don’t thank me. You earned it.

Howard: Howard Wolowitz. Why not World’s Greatest Engineer?

Sheldon: I’m sorry. I typed that into the label maker, but I just couldn’t press enter.

I am a System Engineer, and that makes no sense to me.
That explains everything! Just kidding...kinda!

if you don't believe me, check out the Trojan Battery Chart at the bottom of this link:
http://www.trojanbattery.com/BatteryMaintenance/Testing.aspx
If you plot out the data points of each point in the chart, you will find a nice linear graph.


When I didn't belive the resistance measurement on a pair of pins, I dragged out my old Simpson Meter. Repeating the test with the Simpson, I found that the proper 400 ohm resistance spec on the pair of pins.
By the way, cheap meters will put out enough voltage in resistance checking mode to forward bias transistors and give you a false low reading.

Normal people say if it aint broke don't fix it. Engineers say if it aint broke it's missing features :p
