It does not support lithium, 6V (below 30Ah), or 24V systems. For 6V or 24V testing, consider the BA101 Pro or Plus, with Plus supporting 6V+12V and Pro supporting 12V+24V **Q: Is this tester powered by a built-in battery?** A: No. Like most car battery testers, it is powered by the vehicle’s 12V battery during testing for more accurate results. Testers with built-in batteries are typically basic voltage/esistance testers and not intended for automotive system diagnostics. **Q: How can I get the most accurate test results?** A: For best accuracy, make sure the correct battery type, battery standard, and CCA rating are selected. Always connect the clamps directly to the battery terminals. For stable results, test the battery after the engine has been off for about 2 hours. **Q: Do I need to remove the battery from the vehicle to test it?** A: No. The battery can be tested directly on the vehicle, making routine checks faster and more convenient. Our tester offers two modes: “battery in vehicle” and “battery out of vehicle.” You can choose the mode that best fits your testing situation **Q: Is this tester safe to use?** A: Yes. It is built with reverse polarity protection and high-performance power cables to ensure safe and reliable testing, helping protect both the tester and the vehicle’s electrical system during use ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well and easy to use *by H***K on 17 August 2025* Dies what it is supposed to do ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value for the money *by U***2 on 13 August 2025* Works great.
