    Elk Products BLT

    Battery Life Tester, 12V
    Availability: 0 in stock
    Manufacturer: Elk Products
    SKU: ELK BLT

    The ELK-BLT Battery Life Tester or .Mhos Meter. is a compact, easy to use service tool for testing 12 Volt rechargeable batteries. The BLT measures internal conductivity (Mhos), which is the best indicator of a battery's health and life expectancy. Mhos happens to be the inverse of Ohms (conductance as opposed to resistance). The BLT operates as follows: For each battery brand and size installed you should start by measuring and recording a .baseline. Mhos reading. Then, during any service call or inspection simply measure and record the current (most recent) Mhos reading. Always compare the current Mhos reading with the original reading. Self-adhesive test data labels may be used for recording each inspection. When the current Mhos reading has reached at or around 71% of the original baseline then it is time to consider changing the battery. The BLT includes a reference chart on the back with numbers equating to Mhos readings for common security industry battery sizes.
    Features:

    • Compact, Low cost, and easy to use.
    • Does not discharge or damage the battery.
    • Analyzes 12 Volt Rechargeable Batteries.
    • Warns if battery voltage is too low.
    • Replaceable test leads.
    • Includes Padded Carrying Case.
    • Includes Self-Adhesive Test Data Labels.
    • Lifetime Limited Warranty
    • Numeric LED display shows battery voltage, and Mhos reading
