Frequently Asked Questions

1. What batteries is the BT-2003F suitable for?
   This tester works with 6V and 12V lead-acid batteries, including those in passenger vehicles, 4WDs, light trucks, and aviation support equipment. It handles up to 1000 CCA, making it ideal for mid-to-large vehicle battery diagnostics.
2. What is the benefit of a carbon pile load tester?
   A carbon pile tester simulates real-world engine cranking loads, allowing technicians to see how the battery performs under stress. It’s more reliable than passive testers for assessing battery health and pinpointing early failure signs.
3. How is load applied and monitored?
   The HD carbon pile rheostat allows manual control over the load, while dual analogue meters give precise readings of voltage drop and amperage draw. This enables custom load testing and accurate diagnostics.
4. Is the BT-2003F portable?
   Yes. Weighing just 7 kg and housed in a compact, reinforced steel case, it’s easy to carry around the workshop or job site. The fan-cooled design allows for back-to-back testing without overheating.
5. Is this tool suitable for government or military use?
   Absolutely. The BT-2003F is listed under Defence Stock Number NSN-6625/661302681, meaning it’s already trusted and used in military and defence service applications where equipment reliability is non-negotiable.
