Customer Review: Well worth the money
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a good product. It's inexpensive, easy to use and appears to be fairly accurate. It's really handy to be able to quickly test the batteries in a device that's not working properly to see if the batteries are the problem or not. It can save you from throwing away good batteries because you're not sure if they're worn out. I made some quick comparisons against other battery testers and it seems to give a pretty accurate reading of the battery strength. The fact that the shipping is free is nice as well.Customer Review: Great basic tester
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought this tester because we have a camera that seems to chew up batteries (Nikon P50). Also, have learned that rechargeable batteries discharge even on the shelf. We use the tester to check batteries before putting in the camera and after taking them out when the camera says it needs new batteries. From this practice we have learned where the critical points are on the scale and don't pay attention to the green and red areas. We dont' see a need for a more sophisticated tester.Customer Review: Excellent price and quality

Pop a battery in and the needle moves to tell you how much charge is left.
You have to make sure the battery is the right way round, as indicated by a + or -
You also have to make sure the battery terminals are touching the testers terminals, else you will get a false negative
But thats not too hard to do.
The red slider can be moved up and down for different sized cells, but you have to keep the pressure on yourself as it does not lock into place.
Customer Review: Great little tester

What I really like about this tester is that it tests batteries with a load. I only expected it to read voltage without a load, but it adds a 4 ohm resistor across the 1.5 volt red/black terminals and a 215 ohm resistor across the 9 volt terminals. This loading really helps to correctly asses if a battery is good or bad. It would have been nice if the red slider terminal had a light spring, but is pretty easy to use anyway - it is a real bargain at this price ($3.11).Customer Review: LV, NV

I ordered this battery tester and am very pleased with this product. It shows the charge left in a battery with it's meter so I am not guessing whether a battery is good or not. It arrived on time as promised. It is easy to use. I do not anticipate a reorder because this tester should last a long time. I think it will save money in the long run by allowing me to continue to use batteries for their full lifespan. I will not toss usable batteries again.
