We’ve all jumped into our vehicle, turned the key (or pressed the start button) and heard the dreaded “click click click” and the engine doesn’t start. Or maybe it did start but it took a wee bit longer to turn over than you are comfortable with, neither situation is one you want to be in when you’re in a hurry.
Using this Tester is easy, simply attach the red clamp to your positive battery post and the black clamp to the negative post. The LCD screen will
automatically power on and ask if you want to run a battery test, cranking test, or charging test. The battery can be tested in your vehicle or out and the Tester will ask you which location.
Then you select battery type, the Cold Cranking Amps your battery is rated for and then you are ready to press test! Results will be displayed within seconds and you will know whether your battery is good, needs charged, or replaced. You can also start the car and the tester will check to see how many volts your starter used, which if it’s too many then you know your starter is bad. While the Tester is hooked up and your car is started you can then run the charging test to see if your alternator is putting out the correct current to charge your battery.
I like having this Tester not only for personal use on my car and lawn mower but also to help friends and family out.
If you do find yourself needing to charge your battery, I recommend using this Fully Automatic Smart Battery Charger/ Maintainer, it will charge up to 15 amps (12v and 6v batteries) and then maintain at 2 amps, automatically. An added bonus is it will charge any type of battery you hook it up to. If you’re looking for solely a battery maintainer then this Smart Battery Maintainer is right for you. It maintains any 12v or 6v battery using just .9 amp.
