RE: Testing deep cycle battery with this..
Permalink  

Still trying to understand this battery tester. I only get results that match my understanding of where the two batteries are in real life using the "quick test" setting and entering the amp hour of the battery.

There has been no input to the batteries for several days (solar disconnected) and I left all the lights on for around 8 hours.

These are the measurements I took this morning. Do these figures make sense?

I know this is an old thread, but I received an email from Kogan selling these https://www.kogan.com/au/buy/12v-car-battery-analyser/?utm_source=MailList&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20190830_EDM_1_AU_AUTO_AUTO_BIGWOLF&sponsored=0

It looks the same as the one on evilbay and is a tad more expensive and delivery is not included, but might actually turn up where the one from evilbay didn't seem to be able to get their act together at all.

Then I found this on evilbay https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/12V-Digital-Car-Battery-Tester-AH-CCA-Mode-Auto-Battery-Load-Diagnostic-Tools/273825925051?_trkparms=aid%3D555018%26algo%3DPL.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131003132420%26meid%3D58a1d3cc1f9547a58068c5fcf523af7d%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D113731990158%26itm%3D273825925051%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2047675&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851 at $41 for one and $38ea if I bought 4 at the same time and free delivery

Do you think these will do the same job as the first one linked to on this thread?
