2. Battery tester - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_tester

   Battery tester. A battery tester is an electronic device intended for testing the state of an electric battery, going from a simple device for testing the charge actually present in the cells and/or its voltage output, to a more comprehensive testing of the battery's condition, namely its capacity for accumulating charge and any possible flaws affecting the battery's performance and security.

3. Automotive battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_battery

   A typical 12 V, 40 Ah lead-acid car battery. An automotive battery, or car battery, is a rechargeable battery that is used to start a motor vehicle.. Its main purpose is to provide an electric current to the electric-powered starting motor, which in turn starts the chemically-powered internal combustion engine that actually propels the vehicle.

   Performance testing simulates the drive cycles for the drive trains of Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV), Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) and Plug in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) as per the required specifications of car manufacturers . During these drive cycles, controlled cooling of the battery can be performed, simulating the thermal ...

6. Lead–acid battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead–acid_battery

   Car lead–acid battery after explosion showing brittle fracture in casing ends. Excessive charging causes electrolysis, emitting hydrogen and oxygen in a process known as gassing. Wet cells have open vents to release any gas produced, and VRLA batteries rely on valves fitted to each cell.

   Battery chargers may be strictly manual, or may include controls for time and charging voltage. Battery chargers that apply a high voltage (for example, more than 14.4 volts on a 12-volt nominal system) will result in the emission of hydrogen gas from the battery, which may damage it or create an explosion risk.

8. Load testing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_testing

   A load test can be used to evaluate the health of a car's battery. The tester consists of a large resistor that has a resistance similar to a car's starter motor and a meter to read the battery's output voltage both in the unloaded and loaded state. When the tester is used, the battery's open circuit voltage is checked first.
