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. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
