Review on 🚗 Maximize Vehicle Safety with Auto Meter BCT-200J Intelli-Check II Electrical System Analyzer by Aaron Urena

This is a very well made battery and electrical systems analyzer. Its price puts it out of reach for most weekend mechanics, but if you own a small or large workshop or maintain a fleet of vehicles, this analyzer will come in very handy. It is an intelligent analyzer that can test batteries (wet, gel and absorbent glass mats) and charging systems. The interface is very well designed. It is very easy to complete the testing procedure - just follow the on-screen instructions. You must have a basic understanding of the charging system to properly connect and answer questions. After running a test or test suite, the results are displayed on the screen. It can print to a printer via infrared, but I don't have a printer and don't think it's really necessary. The instructions are very well written. There is no need to learn it as you are already familiar with batteries and alternators, but a quick read will educate you on all the different tests the analyzer can perform. I particularly appreciate the preventive maintenance test suite - connect the cables to the battery and alternator when prompted, answer a few questions and basic tests on the battery (including load test), starter motor and alternator are automatically run. This tests the unit: 1) battery test (bank and individual) 2) charge cord test 3) alternator test 4) starter cord test 5) starter solenoid test 6) key switch test 7) tailgate voltage drop test (which can use trailer charge, trailer motor etc to check) - I didn't have to. Great device!
