Guest Ptp113 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I just bought a nice multiple size battery tester, worth its weight in gold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newjez Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I just bought a nice multiple size battery tester, worth its weight in gold. I generally use two wires soldered to a bulb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abz123 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Anyone done the test with the small 9 volt batteries (like the ones that go in smoke alarms) where you put the two terminals on your tongue :tongue:? Tastes kind of "fizzy" :arghh: but can actually hurt, so please don't try this one at home - especially the younger members on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
