Thanks for all of the replies.

Yes, I DO know that the best test would be a load test, but being that I
JUST
bought the battery before NE S-Fest I just wanted to assess with the car
having
sat for a couple of weeks whether or not it was still holding a charge in
spite of
the memory loads of the UrS. I just wanted to know if the voltage was
reasonable
(I was thinking it was supposed to be 13.7 - 14.1 V, but somehow knew that
was
wrong. Old brains suck).

The battery shouldn't be on it's last legs, I am just being AR. But at the
same time,
I'm also being lazy.
