    I'm wondering if anyone has a definitive guide to testing and charging the individual modules in the HV battery. I've spent two weeks reading through the material and while there is much information available on the subject much of it is a bit over my head. Reading through the threads leaves me with more questions than answers as I'm unsure of how to even perform the 55 watt load test and what to connect to where... and then there's charging! I had four weeks of electronic principles in the USAF but that was nearly 1/4 of a century ago! Does anyone know of a definitive guide that can take a novice through the steps?

    Thank you.
