TOPDON AB 101 - Car Battery Tester 12V Car Battery Load Tester on Cranking Charging Systems

TOPDON ArtiBattery101/AB101 Car Battery Tester 12V Car Battery Load Tester on Cranking Charging Systems, 100-2000 CCA Automotive Alternator Analyzer for Cars/SUVs/Light Trucks with Flooded AGM Gel Types.

Description:

• BATTERY HEALTH TEST: AB101 car battery tester is highly recommended by Scotty Kilmer and BestReviews. By directly benchmarking the battery health, this battery analyzer gives advice on whether to replace the battery. Besides, the cranking and charging system tests are also included.
• WIDE TEST RANGE: “Will it work on my battery?” (most commonly asked question), AB101 battery tester is tailor-designed for most of 12V batteries such as regular flooded, AGM flat plate, AGM spiral, and Gel batteries and strictly follow the battery rating standards- CCA, BCI, CA, MCA, JIS, DIN, IEC, EN, SAE, GB.
• CRANKING & CHARGING TESTS: Auto battery tester AB101 displays the test results (actual cranking voltage & cranking time) in car starter system in seconds, telling if your cranking system is working as expected. AB101 battery load tester conducts an integrated check on 12V charging system to ensure a normal generator output, perfectly working rectifier diode and under controlled charging current.
• UNPARALLELED USER EXPERIENCE: Compared with traditional load battery testers, this car battery tester is much light and user-friendly. An easy-to-read backlight screen shows you results in 3 secs. Multilingual: English, Russian, Spanish, French, German, Italian. Trust us - Quality, Stability and Reliability.
• SAFETY PROTECTIONS: Durable yet lightweight, with menu-driven operation, even a beginner can use this car battery tester at ease. Your safety is our priority. The metal alligator clips of this battery tester are covered with rubberized sleeve protector for safety. 1 year Warranty.

Different Battery Test Results Explained:

• Good Battery: The battery is in good condition
• Good, Recharge: It’s a good battery with low current, recharge it before next use
• Replace: The battery is almost or already broken, and you should replace the battery
• Bad Cell, Replace: The battery is broken, internally damaged or has short circuit and it’s time to replace the battery
• Charge-Retest: An unstable battery should be recharged and retested to avoid errors. If the same test result appears again, the battery is regarded as damaged. Replace the battery

Cranking System Test:

• Select the cranking test and start the engine when prompted, then the tester will automatically complete the test
• The tester will display the result including actual cranking voltage and actual cranking time
• If cranking voltage is lower than 9.6V, the cranking system is regarded as abnormal
• If cranking voltage is higher than 9.6V, the cranking system is ok

Charging System Test:

• Charging Voltage: Normal – the generator output is normal, no problems detected
• Charging Voltage: Low – check the drive belt of the generator and the connection between generator and battery, or follow the manufacturer’s guidelines to eliminate the generator fault
• Charging Voltage: High – replace the generator assembly or a regulator to avoid battery damage
• No Voltage Output – check the generator connection and the belt
• Diode Test – there is at least one diode that is damaged if the ripple voltage is too high.

Notice:

• Voltage test range: 8-16 VDC
