Battery Tester

[parkerpoly]

Anyone have or use one ? If so, what's your opinion ?
What would you recommend to buy with quality and price in mind ?
Also one that could test a wide range of batteries including AMG,
GEL etc...Also 6V and 9V...

Thx in advance !!!

And a little help on how far down the charging and starting
system these testers test...

Thx !!!

We have those at work. They are made by MidTronics. They work. Just a bit too pricy for home use for me.

The one in the link is the one we use, and have used at other dealers I've worked at as well. It's the only one I'm familar with. I know these work very well. :thumbsup

disclaimer...

I have never used one on anything but a 12v system.

AutoMeter has one that works well. Guy at Autozone used it to check my failing duralast battery. He says its been really accurate
