Why Choose the BT-108 Digital Battery Tester?
Quick Battery Diagnosis
The BT-108 lets you run a full test on a vehicle’s starting and charging systems in just seconds. It shows the voltage level, tests the battery’s cranking amps, and evaluates whether the charging system is operating properly.
User-Friendly for All Levels
You don’t need to be a trained technician to use the BT-108. The easy-to-read screen and simplified battery result categories (Good, Weak, Replace) make it ideal for both beginners and seasoned mechanics.
Detect Problems Early
Catch issues before they become expensive repairs. A weak battery or failing alternator can leave vehicles stranded. With the BT-108, early detection allows for preventative action and better safety.
Compact Yet Powerful
Small enough to fit in a glove box or tool chest, this tester punches above its weight with professional-grade features like CCA evaluation and a voltage alarm. Despite its size, it provides robust testing capacity for all standard 12V systems.
Peace of Mind
Knowing the real-time status of your vehicle’s battery helps you avoid unexpected breakdowns. For fleet maintenance or individual vehicle owners, this unit helps extend battery life through proper monitoring.

Frequently Asked Questions About the BT-108 Digital Battery Tester
What types of batteries can the BT-108 test?
This tester is built for 12V lead-acid batteries, which are commonly found in passenger vehicles, light trucks, and small boats. It is not suitable for 6V, 24V, or lithium-ion batteries.
Can I use this on a fully discharged battery?
The BT-108 requires some voltage to operate, so it may not function if the battery is entirely flat. For best results, test a battery with at least 9.6V or use a jump starter to briefly restore minimum voltage.
How accurate are the Good/Weak/Replace readings?
The BT-108 uses voltage level and cranking capability to estimate battery health. While not as comprehensive as high-end load testers, its accuracy is sufficient for everyday diagnostics, maintenance, and routine checks.
Is it safe to use on newer vehicles?
Yes. The BT-108 is non-invasive and doesn’t send harmful pulses or surges. It’s safe for modern vehicles with sensitive electronics, including those with start-stop systems.
Can it be used to test the alternator?
Yes. The BT-108 includes a charging system test that lets you check alternator voltage under load and no-load conditions to identify issues like undercharging or overcharging.
