no start/ no power after running fine

hi club,
note: the problem described below has only happened once in 5 years of ownership. and this happened after a rainy day.
my car (sr5 w/gts swap) started up and ran fine. but when i stopped to get gas, it wouldn’t restart (but would crank). and after a couple more attempts, there was no power at all. no lights, no radio.
with help from a tow truck guy, the car was able to start by jumpstarting it. when i got home i shut the car down and tried to restart it but got no power (no lights, no radio).
i brought the battery to get checked, tech said it was good. this was just a quick check with a battery tester not a recharge.
when i re-installed the battery, i got power and the car starts.
any thoughts to why i’m getting intermittent no power?
happy new year btw
