Battery Discharge tester

Streak · Jan 29, 2005

I am looking for a tester with variable time and current settings that one can use to test primary and rechargeable cells discharge characteristics.

I think there are units with serial interfaces for output to a PC.

I found the CBA II analyzer from West Mountain Radio which looks very good. Any others out there worth looking at?

TIA

Hello Streak,

I have been using this.

It runs off of a USB port. It allows you to pick what current you want to discharge at, but does not allow you to set the time.

Hi Silverfox, you must have posted while I was editing mine to include the CBA!!

Thanks for the input.

Hello Streak,

If you don't need the computer the Triton does a good job of analysis and depending on your cell size, the BC-900 charger also can check capacity at different discharge rates.

There is also a thread on building your own data logger.
