Minimum battery voltage

[kimbon]

^ I use the same voltmeter that *red_one posted. Seems accurate naman, same reading with the handheld clamp type meter used by the casa when I had my car serviced last weekend.

sis, both gadgets should be the same reading otherwise either one is not "telling the truth" hehe

Ito yung digital clamp meter ko. Max 400 Amps, for both AC and DC current. Mastech MS2108A ang model.

The best way to test a car battery is to use a battery tester, used in batt charging shops. It has a clip for the negative terminal and a sharp probe for the pos terminal. Just clip to the neg pole and the pointed probe on the pos terminal. No guesswork. Can be used for 6v or 12v. It measures
the actual current capacity of the batt. thru a low ohmage-high power resistor. Voltage readings can sometimes be deceiving.
