Ordinary battery testers show you if the voltage is OK, but can't tell you if it has sufficient power to actually handle the load of a high-draw item like a CD player, PDA or flashlight for a significant length of time. But this Improvements®-designed tester features factory-adjusted precision resistors to test the battery under a load, to tell you if a good battery is truly a useful battery! (You can save the marginal batteries for low-consumption items, like clocks or radios.) Tests all your household AAA, AA, C, D, 9v, "button" and "coin" batteries...any type, regular or rechargeable. Ideal for checking the batteries in multi-battery devices...why throw out all the batteries if only one is bad!
No awkward "leads" to fiddle with, so you can simply hold the battery tester in one hand and position the battery with the other. Just squeeze the handle to open the jaws. One jaw tip is magnetic for quick, "drop-free" positioning...this exclusive feature makes it easy to use by every member of the family, especially senior citizens who can now easily test the tiniest hearing-aid batteries.
This compact battery tester also tests all household and auto light bulbs, Christmas light-string bulbs, halogen bulbs, as well as household and automotive fuses. Three LED indicators provide the information you need: red (bad), yellow (low) and green (good). On/off switch. Powered by two lithium batteries included.
After you've tested your batteries, now you need a place to store them. The Battery Organizer/Storage Center holds up to 53 batteries and still has room to hold your Battery Tester.
