$3 that every LS400 owner should spend
this is a cool voltmeter that plugs into your cigarette lighter and will tell you instantly how your battery is (with car off) and how your alternator is performing (with car on) - $2.81 to your door! 
- how can you beat that, diagnostic answers without even cracking the hood! (it takes about 10 days to arrive from Hong Kong so be patient)
also, every owner of a 95 and newer Lexus should strongly consider this $17 OBD-II diagnostic code scanner that works great! - that price is just insane!
I own both of these and they are some of the best buys of 2013
PS - before you laugh at the $2.81 voltmeter, I will tell you that I checked it against my $400 Fluke 87 series V multimeter and it is spot on!

I have this one and it works great, I use it with Torque Pro but there are even cheaper adapters that are fine as well.

I checked mine vs. a Fluke voltmeter and it was dead on, everyone should perform that check when they initially receive it - the Chinese vendors will send you another one if it's not right, and they don't need the old one back!.
and blur your address in that public pic!
