Good point. I'm planning testing this next week - doing B-A, B-A testing. Going to do one run with a full battery and the alternator running, then disconnect and do the same run.
...go home, charge battery, clean garage for awhile, then repeat. I'm going to do a city/highway route with plenty of full stops at lights requiring using the starter to restart.
