Review on Actron CP7612 Battery Load Tester by Frankie Wesley

Revainrating 5 out of 5

User-friendly and durable design

I bought the Actron CP7612 after purchasing a BLS 12/24v battery desulfator. The Actron is a powerful instrument, much bigger and heavier than I imagined. The connector clips in the picture are not small mini clips but full size clips found on a set of connection cables. The same big wire. I had a garage corner with 7 "dead" car, motorcycle, and lawnmower batteries that I suspected weren't shorted, just sulfated. After using the BLS desulfurizer according to the instructions in the manual, an Actron battery tester confirmed to me that the BLS 12/24B completely desulphated the apparently "dead" $200 Optima Red Top battery and put it in restored to a perfectly usable state. The cost of Actron and BLS together was less than the cost of Optima Red Top alone. My intention now is to recover any dead batteries and confirm their recovery using the Actron Battery Tester.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Out of fashion
