14 of 14 people found the following review helpful.I have two Hondas with their original OEM batteries and I was getting concerned about the batteries' health. It's a pain to get two cars down to the auto parts store for testing (by folks who may not be neutral about the results) so I invested in a Actron CP7612 tester. It's simple to use to test a vehicle's battery and charging system.As other reviewers have noted, the tester can get very hot if the spring-loaded test switch is held in the "on" position for too long but my unit only got warm during the 10-15 second test specified in the instructions. The product is robust enough for the DIYer, with heavy connecting cables and an acceptably rigid sheet metal enclosure for the test element (heating coil) and meter.
21 of 23 people found the following review helpful.I bought this today at a local auto supply house at a cost of $60.00 plus $3.00 state sales tax. Obviously Amazons' price is much better, but I wanted it NOW to test a battery that had been drawn down to 2 volts. I had charged the battery and brought in back to a steady 12.75 which is where it should be, but I wanted to determine if it would hold a charge. The Actron took just 10 seconds to verify I should be able to trust the battery OK. And not have to buy a new one. So in the end, it saved me $52.00, as the new battery costs $115.00. expensive I know, it is a Harley Davidson motorcycle battery.
16 of 17 people found the following review helpful.The Actron CP7612 battery load tester works well and gives reliable info regarding battery performance. The only caveat is to remember the unit gets quite hot and following the instructions specifically in terms of how long to leave the unit "on" is important to avoid overheating.
