In the Philippines, our batteries don't list cranking amps or cold cranking amps. Will this tester give me this info?

Same problem with aircraft batteries. I tried setting it at a low CCA battery setting to see what would happen and got a reading. I have no way to know if that result is accurate. The thing is designed around inputting the CCA to do the test, so I guess it might not be the answer for you. You might want to consider a carbon pile style tester.

Yes, that is what the meter does, to clarify it tells you the CCA that the battery is capable of in its present condition, it does not tell you what the CCA of the battery was capable of when manufactured. It also does not tell you battery capacity. Someone else said no, that is a wrong answer as stated

Yes, not the nominal value but the current one, so you can compare with the listed value in normal conditions.

This item is a heavy duty jump start battery pack. It is a 12 volt 750 CCA (Cold Cranking Amps) or a 24 volt 375 CCA (Cold Cranking Amps).The item description should help you with most of your questions. My opinion this item is a great product. Have a great day!

I have not used this particular product. To test batteries you need to know more than just what the voltage is, you have to know the voltage drop of the battery when a load is supplied. If your talking about a car battery places like Autozone will check your battery for free.http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/electric/dcex6.html

The battery I received here is marked 7800 milli Amp Hour, and should be the correct one I asked for. The only way to know for sure if is what is printed on the battery is a standard load test. a problem for most to perform. I usually trust what is printed unless performs poorly in the machine. my past experience is usually good to what is printed. good luck, I felt I got what I asked for.

i would get your battery tested at autozone or somewhere like that. also, are you sure your remote turn on wire is connected? i use the same amp with stock alternator and the car keeps up with it. it would be very unlikely to have a defective amp go through QC, but its a possibility.

Not sure, The unit is designed for 12v deep cell low amp batteries used on boats to power radios, fish finder and lights but not to start high amp engines batteries to start car and boat engines.

Stated battery voltage is unimportant. Tester measures specific gravity of sulphuric acid/water mix in flooded-electrolyte, lead-acid batteries. If you can safely get to the electrolyte in each cell, you can make your measurements. This tester does not have a thermometer attached for temperature compensation calculation. You will obtain higher confidence in the accuracy of your measurements if electrolyte temperature is at or very near 68 degrees F. Cheers!

-400 Cold Cranking Amps @ 0 Degree F(10 Hr Rate-Ah) 26ETX30L Dimensions: Length: 6.63" x Width: 5.19" x Height: 6.88"Weight: 21.7 lbsAbove are the batteries size and CCA.......Your bike came with a wet cell battery but guys are using various AGM batteries in the older bikes the dimensions should help you bee 100% sure it will fit

Can not help. Perhaps you could contact the battery manufacture and get the CCA information from them.

Yes! Up to 240 Volts, It says in the product description. Same voltage in Philippines and it works there.

Yes, it says 100-240v. Thats another reason I bought it. I want to use it in the Philippines.

you can't test amps like that. only volts. and you should be getting anywhere from 12 to 14 volts on a fully charged battery..

MUGS, No need for an in line use. Simply wire to a battery with a minimum of 650 cold cranking amps. Thank you!

It measures the battery's ability to deliver high currents. The lower the battery internal resistance the greater current it can deliver. The tester places a very high load on the battery for a extremely short time and measures the current flow (or voltage drop). It then calculates the cold cranking amp value. As long as the battery has some charge it can "predict" the ability to deliver current when fully charged. I have stopped using my load tester since buying this tester.

You get the best indication of battery condition under load. All this tester does is provide a load and measure voltage. I expect it wold work fine for your deep cycle batteries.

I don't have one, sorry. Look in your manual, all you have to do is match the voltage and amps. I don't have my original one either.

It is not a load tester. It does not place a load on the battery. It measures the reluctance of the battery and calculates the CCA.
