Before you start testing - Precautions - (from the user manual)

Be sure the area around the battery is well ventilated while the battery is being tested.

Clean the battery terminals. Be careful to keep corrosion from coming in contact with your eyes.

Inspect the battery for a cracked or broken case or cover. If the battery is damaged, do not use the tester.

If the battery is not a sealed maintenance free battery, check the level of each cell and if necessary, add distilled water until the battery acid reaches the level specified by the manufacturer. This helps purge excessive gas from the cells. Do not overfill.

If it is necessary to remove the battery from the vehicle to test it, always remove the ground terminal from the battery first. Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are off to ensure you do not cause any arcing.

K2 Series High Capacity Cells - Maxwell

The K2 Series ultracapacitors are a third generation design that provides 2.7 volt operating voltage while improving Maxwell's high performance and high reliability on a high volume manufacturing platform.  - https://www.maxwell.com/

K2 Series High Capacity Cells - Maxwell

This type of caps are also an ideal source of back-up power. It can provide extended power availability, allowing critical information and functions to remain available during dips, sags, and outages in a power supply or battery change.



The K2 2.7V series works in tandem with batteries for applications that require both a constant power discharge for continual function and a pulse power for peak loads. In these applications, the ultracapacitors relieve batteries of peak power functions, resulting in extended battery life and a reduction in overall battery size and cost.

ROV Metal Oxide Varistors Raychem

The ROV device's high current-handling and energy absorption capability, fast response, and low cost can make it suitable for use in line voltage applications.

ROV Metal Oxide Varistors Raychem

"ROV metal oxide varistors help protect power systems from damage caused by transient overvoltage faults such as lightning, power contact, and power induction. Suitable for a broad range of applications, ROV devices help protect sensitive electronic equipment from potential power surge damage by clamping high-energy, short-duration impluses."



"An ROV device is a varistor fabricated using a Zinc Oxide (ZnO) powder, sintered with other metal oxide ceramics. The resulting structure is a polycrystalline ceramic that consists of distributed ZnO grains, separated by other metal oxide ceramics."

Raychem Circuit Protection Products

"A varistor is a variable resistor-a voltage dependent, non-linear device whose resistance decreases as the voltage applied across the device increases. "

ROVs can also be used to help protect electrical equipment from damage caused by large voltage or power transients on the AC Mains inputs. In a coordinated circuit protection scheme the ROV can be paired with a PolySwitch overcurrent protection device to help improve equipment reliability and fulfill IEC-61000 test requirements.
