AUTOOL BT960 Battery Tester-Essential Tool For The Workshop

Car battery testers are everywhere, but many testers on the market have single functions and cannot meet comprehensive testing needs for car batteries.

To address this issue, AUTOOL launched the BT960 battery tester, suitable for testing 99% of batteries on the market and specifically designed for workshops. This guide explains how to choose a car battery tester, what makes the AUTOOL BT960 useful for workshops, and how it supports lithium battery testing.

Workshop and car owner needs

How Do I Choose a Car Battery Tester?#

Workshop

For workshops, the AUTOOL BT960 car battery tester is the right choice.

The AUTOOL BT960 car battery tester uses advanced conductance testing technology to quickly and accurately measure the cold cranking current and health status of automotive starting batteries. It can also detect faults in the starting and charging systems, helping technicians efficiently diagnose issues.

Additionally, the AUTOOL BT960 car battery tester supports temperature sensors, thermal printers, current leakage and voltage recording functions, and is capable of testing lithium batteries, making it an ideal choice for workshops.

Car Owners

For car owners, choosing a cost-effective and versatile battery tester is essential. A car battery tester should meet four basic testing functions.

• Standard TestAllows owners to quickly determine if the battery is within normal operating range, avoiding startup issues caused by battery failure.
• Cranking TestHelps owners assess the actual performance of the battery, preventing difficulties in starting the vehicle in cold weather.
• Charging TestEnables owners to check if the charging system is functioning properly and if the battery can effectively store electrical energy, ensuring reliability during use.
• Load TestReveals potential issues with the battery, helping owners take preventive measures before failures occur.
