I remember seeing an old carbon pile battery tester with a Sun brand name. I bet that Gulf and other oil companies at the time contracted with companies like Sun to provide equipment for their gas stations when they were really SERVICE STATIONS.
edit:
I found this eBay listing for a Sun model.
Is yours like this?
I see that this model was sold in the ‘70’s and ‘80’s.

Welcome aboard. I have been to Racine before. I drive trucks for a living and have been up there a few times.
I don't have anything to help you with your battery tester though.
