Description: A palletload of used car batteries, collected by Autozone store #4121 (an auto parts retailer) from their customers. This pallet contains approximately 75 batteries, and weighs approximately 2500 pounds. It is in the process of being prepared for interstate truck shipment. It will have a flat sheet of cardboard laid over the top and will be wrapped in plastic cling-film wrap, at which point it will be ready for transport to an Autozone distribution center. Nearly all of the batteries on this pallet were collected as exchanges during the sale of a new battery. 1 or 2 were dropped off by customers in exchange for $5 store credit. One battery was left by a customer for charging and testing, who never returned to pick it up. All the batteries on this pallet failed a load test at the output for which they were rated. The load tests were performed by an Autometer BVA-200s battery tester, after a 50 Amp quick charge (if necessary).
