Snap-on's new Wireless Battery System Tester (EECS400) is a "must have" tool to help techs conduct more battery system testing faster and more efficiently, according to the manufacturer.

"The Snap-on EECS400 is the first battery system tester in the industry that checks battery, starting and charging systems wirelessly," said David Brekke, category manager for Snap-on.  "This versatile tool gives service technicians the newfound freedom to move around the vehicle, rev the engine and operate load controls while viewing the hand-held unit's screen commands and results. The EECS400 will allow service technicians to perform more battery testing jobs during the course of the day without the need for a second technician's help."

 

The Snap-on Wireless Battery System Tester (EECS400) includes a hand-held receiver, battery module with leads, USB adapter for PC printing, Microsoft® PC data template CD, brass post adaptors and a carrying case.  Some of the features and benefits of the EECS400 include:

 

  • Tester will display battery or battery pack condition as percentage of available capacity, rated capacity (i.e. CCA's), and state of charge voltage as good, marginal or replace status
  • Wireless micro LCD features both a radio and an IR wireless printer output for remote printout of the test results
  • Test results can be sent to either a Microsoft® PC (sold separately) via USB adapter (included), or a stand alone IR Printer (optional HHGA-5 or 2-22566)
  • Test data for the last test performed is stored in the memory and can be reviewed either when connected to a battery or when disconnected from the battery at a later time
  • Applications:  Tests batteries from 100 CCA to 3500 CCA (battery pack); 6/12/24/36V starting/charging systems; both series and parallel batteries; parasitic drain; alternator ripple; 6V & 12V batteries
