The problem with just using a multimeter is that a volt meter will only measure the voltage of the battery at rest, and it's far more useful to get a reading on a battery when it is under load. (In other words, a multimeter might identify a dead battery, but it can't guarantee a good one, as a battery could read fine at rest, but drop as soon as you try to use it with something). I have no idea if this LaCrosse tester puts the batteries under load, though, so it may be no different than a multimeter. Given that you only select the voltage range, and don't specify battery size leads me to think it's probably NOT putting a load on the battery being tested. I have a different tester where you specify small/med/large batteries (coin cells/AA&AAA/C&D) and that puts a battery size-appropriate load on the battery for the test.

Um. The the 1.2V, 1.5V, an 3V batteries it tests are all cylinders that fit in the little spring-loaded tray that comes out, so the voltage type must be selected to adjust the range appropriately.

9V batteries are the only type that are used with the other set of contacts dedicated for it, and since it is unambiguous what you are testing when using them, a range selection is unnecessary.

Looks like regular price...
I've been watching the price on this and the regular price has been about $15. Occasionally it dropped a few bucks but I haven't seen it this low.

If this is the regular price then it's a brand new regular price... but I doubt that it is.

La Crosse stopped making battery chargers so this might be a closeout.

My battery daddy tester always says my dead battery is full so I don't know if this one is more reliable…

Why all the thumbs down? I prefer to use the bounce test in a pinch.

Quote from CollegeRamenEat :
So it tests batteries up to 9V but can only be set up to 3V?

fark out of here with that cheap horseshit
Have you ever actually seen a 9 volt battery? They don't use the same contacts as other batteries. The 9 volt contacts are always set to 9 volts.
