FULBAT FULTEST 1 · battery tester to check your lead-acid battery at home

Is the car slow to turn over on frosty mornings, or has the motorbike been standing for weeks? Before you buy a new battery, it pays to know what shape the old one is in.

The FULBAT FULTEST 1 is a tester designed for lead-acid batteries, the type fitted to most cars, motorbikes and garden machinery. It lets you check your battery at home and decide calmly whether a charge will do or it is time for a replacement.

If you also run lithium batteries, take a look at its sibling, the FULTEST 2, which handles both lead-acid and lithium and weighs just 0.22 kg.

How to use it, step by step

• 1.  Switch off the engine and every electrical load before you start.
• 2.  Find the battery terminals and clean off any dirt or corrosion.
• 3.  Connect the tester the right way round: red to positive (+), black to negative (−).
• 4.  Read the result; if the battery is low, charge it and test again before deciding.
• 5.  When you have finished, remove the black lead first and then the red.
