This thing is awesome for the money. It’s far more intuitive than the old school carbon pile load testers, plus it will give you more info than the old school load tester. It’s been accurate enough as far as I can tell when I stick a multimeter and old school load tester on the same battery.This tester is so cheap that it will pay for itself the first time you use it. It will tell you the battery’s health and charge level and do an alternator test and getting any of these correct will save you a tow and a fat mechanic bill. I throw it on my cars when the batteries are getting a couple years old to see if I need to swap a battery before it’s totally dead so my mother or wife doesn’t get stranded.

This is a fast and easy way to read and reset codes on your car. It does a good job and you can get a good price on it.

Amazing for the price. You won’t be disappointed! Works straight out of the box, with no batteries or charging needed since it’s powered directly from the car.The instructions aren’t the best, so for those who might not know: connect it to the car by attaching the Positive (red) clamp to the positive terminal of the car battery first, then connect the Negative (black) clamp to the negative terminal on the battery. It can test batteries both in and out of the car.The device will power on once connected, and you get three options for testing the battery with step-by-step instructions.The three options are Battery Test, Cranking Test, and Charging Test. The Battery Test will determine the health of a battery, the Cranking Test will measure the battery's ability to start the engine, and the Charging Test will measure the voltage of the battery while the vehicle is running to determine if the battery and alternator are working.If you think you have a bad alternator, use this device first and run through the tests. It provides straightforward results (as shown in the photo) that tell you if the battery is good, needs to be replaced, or if the alternator has no output.Couldn’t recommend this device enough

I was experiencing a 12V battery on my EV losing charge and wanted to determine if it was the battery or internal charging unit. The unit was simple to operate and indicated a bad cell which was verified at my dealer service.

This battery tester is great. It worked exactly as expected, and I was really surprised by all the extra features it has. I thought it would just be a simple tester, but it does way more than I anticipated. Definitely worth the price!

Better than a DVM.Much cheaper than a shop-grade Automotive Battery Tester.Easy to use. Detects most Battery Problems.Pros:1. Easy to Use, Compact and Inexpensive.2. Tests wide variety of 12V Auto Batteries.3. Checks Engine Starting and Battery Charging health.Cons:1. Skimpy Manual with small TypeFont.2. Valid Analysis depends on correct CCA and Battery type inputs.3. Can’t confirm battery performance at low temperature.Precautions:Test the battery directly at it's terminals. Some cars like Hybrids, have Remote Jump Start terminals. Using the more convenient Engine bay terminals may give false 'BAD Battery' results.Detailed Analysis:1. Tested one 3S 12.5V Lithium Battery, four AGM Flat-Plate Batteries, four FloodedCell LeadAcid batteries, six autos (Two Hybrids), and two inboard V8 Boats.2. Detection of common issues:a. GOOD: Charging System healthy voltages and quality (AC Ripple).b. GOOD: Low battery voltages, bad cells, loss of capacity.c. GOOD: Cranking current under test conditions and comparison to Rated Cold Cranking Current.d. MARGINAL: No direct indication of battery capacity (Amp-Hour Capacity). 5 year old Flooded Pb Starter battery with only 1 Amp-Hour usable capacity tested as good when charged.e. MARGINAL: Probably not able to predict all Cold Starting issues.December 2023 Update: AVOID testing batteries in Hybrid vehicles from the remote 'Jump Start' Ports! Picking the Test Standard (CCA, MCA, etc.):1. I tested a 4year old Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid Battery and it reported a low Cranking Amp Reading with a recommendation to "REPLACE" when tested at the 'Jump Start' Posts in the engine compartment (The 12V battery is in the Left Rear Side compartment inside the minivan). When the battery was removed and tested directly at the battery., they results was "GOOD" battery with a nominal ColdCrankingAmp reading.2. There are a large number of 'Test Standards' including CCA, MCA, etc. to choose. For example, most Starter batteries in the US are rated for CCA (Cold Cranking Amps at 0F). Use this to provide an accurate assessment against the Battery's Rating. Use the MCA (Marine Cranking Amps) for boat applications where the operating temperature is 32F. The MCA readings will be generally higher (better) than the CCA.

I love the ease of use of this device. The Battery, Charging, and Cranking test are great features to test your car's starting system.

Lo he probado en varias baterÃas y funciona perfectamente, sencillo de utilizar y muy fiable. Una manera rápida de checkear una baterÃa 12v de manera fiable. Complementario a otro probadores como puede ser el densimetro y comprobador de alta corriente para testesr la descarga.

The KW208 Car battery tester is a perfect instrument to test your car battery, especially if your car battery is older than 5 years and the winter is coming. The instrument was tested on 2014 Toyota Camry LE and the readings were consistent and similar to a professional garage instrument. This is a very good instrument to have.

Worked great! Perfect for a quick test before you fire the ‘parts cannon’
