Description of Auto Meter BVA-350 Advanced Handheld Battery Tester

Tests flooded, deep cycle, and AGM batteries with CCA range of 100-1600 - also detects discharged batteries, bad cells, and has built in reverse polarity protection. Features Auto Meter's V-Drop Technology – this unique Auto Meter feature utilizes a patented process to automate the measurement of voltage drop in the charging circuit during starter engagement to ensure vehicle systems are operating at peak performance. This test occurs with minimal operator effort in the short period of time required for the engine to crank over and fire. Auto Meter’s V-Drop technology prevents the need to connect additional probes and/or disable ignition or fuel systems to engage in excessive engine crank periods. In the event that your Auto Meter tester equipped with V-Drop detects an issue, it will guide the operator through the diagnosis to identify which part of the circuit is causing the excessive voltage drop. Unlike competitor models, Auto Meter testers only require a single technician to run a full electrical system test due to our on-board 40 amp True Load cell. This eliminates the need to apply inconsistent loads, such as headlights, fans, etc. which makes our products easier to use and more accurate. Automatically stores the last 100 tests in memory. 30" - 16 gauge leads with professional grade clamps that are easily field serviceable.

Easy-to-use battery and electrical system tester

I found this battery tester very easy to use. The supplied instructions are very detailed and easy to understand. I'm no mechanic but I was able to get a good reading from my battery, this will also check your alternator, starter pull and voltage drop. It's also designed to connect to your computer and print using an infrared printer sold by the same company.

Pros
  • Automatically stores the last 100 tests in memory.
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Innovative, easy to use, popular

later As someone who has driven a lot of old cars and even got stuck in McDonald's when my car battery died, I really appreciate and love this product. It's small enough to easily fit in the trunk. He checks the battery, alternator and starter, which is VERY handy because if your car suddenly won't start you're all sitting there thinking, well, is it the battery? Ignition lock? Starter? WHICH TYPE!? I don't always feel like hanging around my local auto zone. The included connection cables are…

Pros
  • Unlike the competition, Auto Meter testers only need one technician to perform a full electrical system test thanks to our built-in 40A true load sensor. This eliminates the need for uneven loads such as headlights, fans, etc., making our products more user-friendly and accurate.
Cons
  • I will add

This is a professional automatic electrical charge/battery tester whose patented Digital Pulse Load (DPL) technology gives you reliable battery condition data, telling you if the battery is good, fair or bad, even if it is she is empty. The advantage of being able to pass this information on to the customer saves them a battery failure and encourages them to sell the battery at a car dealership. This tester can also detect problems with vehicle charging systems, a stator diode test will…

Pros
  • Tests flooded, deep cycle and AGM batteries with a CCA range of 100-1600 - also detects dead batteries, bad cells and has built in reverse polarity protection.
Cons
  • I'll Be Silent
