Read the instructions! This is how most of the world, including your
local battery dealer, load tests batteries. LOL

I have one of those. It draws 5 times the current desired AND would
likely catch on fire or burn something up if left on for long. It is a
1200 watt heater with no fan!

Dave,
If you used a resistor, you’d need 0.6 ohms at least 240 watts.
Probably not practical. You could put a load on your batteries by
turning on most of your lights, cabin fans and other loads.

I have been following this discussion and would like to do this
for my batteries. Can you suggest what would be an
easy/appropriate ~20A load generating device? Dave
