Product Details

The AutoMeter SB-300 handheld battery tester utilizes a patented Digital Pulse Load (DPL) technology, applying a true 40-amp load to the battery. This simulates real-world operating conditions, aligning with Battery Council International (BCI) testing standards for unmatched accuracy. Unlike other testers that might require a second person to operate accessories like headlights, this unit's on-board load cell allows a single technician to perform a complete electrical system test efficiently.

This tester is designed to rapidly and accurately diagnose battery issues, completing a full battery test in under 82 seconds. It can test flooded, deep cycle, and AGM batteries within a 100-1600 CCA range, and it also detects discharged batteries and bad cells. The results include measured true CCA, voltage, percent of charge, and the battery's state of health (Good, Near End of Life, or Bad). Its rugged composite housing with a protective rubber boot, along with 30-inch, 16-gauge leads and field-serviceable clamps, makes it a durable addition to any toolbox for years of service.

Operation is intuitive with a menu-driven interface displayed on a back-lit LCD screen, available in both English and Spanish. The SB-300 automatically stores the last 100 tests in memory, and customer communication is enhanced with optional external printers or a PC cable. It also features built-in reverse polarity protection, ensuring safe and reliable operation.
