Without sophisticated electronics, simple method to measure battery capacity : 1 relay, 1 zener, 2 diodes, a resistive load, 1 timed switch, time counting accessory.

10 dec. 2020 ,

good morning ,
I designed this to measure the status of some second hand batteries , but i wouln't use hard electronics circuits ( processor)  nor integrated circuits ( op amp , comparators ...) ! 
1 relay with parallèl diode ,
1 zener ,
1 diode  ( protection against load current ), 
1  load ( could be a car lamp ...) 
1 temporary switch ,
1 time counting accessory .

that's all  , best regards , Alain
