[T3] generator or battery


Would a type 3 run with a nearly dead battery?  Two weeks ago Maddy
and I left the radio on for the weekend and killed the battery.  I
jumped started it monday morning and it hasn't had any trouble
starting since.  However, I noticed at idle my headlights dim when the
turn signals flash.  Tonight it's below freezing and I added wipers
and rear brake lights to the mix and the blinkers pretty much stopped,
and the wiper motor bogged down.  I'm going to test the generator for
voltage at medium RPM.  How should I test the battery?
