Thanks, James. I'll add that if you're patient, you can find individual sticks on eBay, or you might find a forum member who has a spare pack he's parting out.

Also, there are twenty sticks at 6.5Ah each. Five cycles at 10A, with 15 minutes between operations, would take 9 hr a piece. Times twenty sticks, would take between one and two weeks. Then give it another week for your self-discharge test. Yep, it takes time. It also takes about a dollar's worth of electricity, which you can use to help heat your house for a week or two.
