I tested the battery after charging it last night, and again this morning. Unconnected all night, it dropped its voltage .4 volts (note, I waited an hour after recharging to test.) That, and the extra car work convinced me that it was the battery despite having it checked at a shop.
I just returned from said shop (Les Schwab for those of you in the west). Told them that I spent a lot of my time diagnosing the rest of the car based on their diagnosis, and was convinced the battery was faulty contrary to their evaluation. I asked (politely) for prompt service because of their misdiagnosis. Waited 45 minutes after I was told 15 minutes. They finally confirmed a bad battery, and treid to sell me an $85 dollar battery after making me wait. I'm now on my way to another battery shop to buy a new battery, and better service, for a better price. ;-)
