... and you are too far away for me to borrow yours ... and so I need to now find one now tooNice video Richard. I am a sucker for chargers and testers. Now I have to have that Solar Battery Tester. $94.75 at Amazon.ca and free shipping.
My Mastercard bill is going to be huge for this month already so I can't order that battery tester. The good news is, the 'month' ends today. Tomorrow I have a clean slate again. The timing was perfect here. I love how that works. I will be on Amazon.ca in the morning.... and you are too far away for me to borrow yours ... and so I need to now find one now too
I have 3 marine batteries for which this device will come in handy every year and save me the
"embarrassment" of reloading the boat with power to work accessories but not enough to start
Hope there’s not a buying spree from this thread and they sell out by morning ...My Mastercard bill is going to be huge for this month already so I can't order that battery tester.

I watched some YouTube videos. Found that there is a digital version of this Solar BA7 Battery Tester called a BA9. In some of the comments I learned that there is an Ancel BA101 Battery Tester with more features and less money. Checked out a really good review video on it by dial2fast. That's the tester I am ordering tomorrow. Good ol' YouTube.Hope there’s not a buying spree from this thread and they sell out by morning ......

Mine arrived today right on time. Not 3 days early. I am feeling like a lower priority, Prime Member and all. Being -20F right now, I am not in a hurry to go play with some batteries. Maybe tomorrow I will fire up the woodburner and heat up the shop.Amazon is awesome ... not only free delivery but also in only 3 days
(5 days sooner than the confirmation email stated)

Better watch our Bixter. The tree huggers will be at your door for deforestation and air pollution. Maybe some good old Alberta bitumen would be less polluting!Mine arrived today right on time.

Good point Richard. I better lock and load and keep an eye on the driveway alarm when I am out there.Better watch our Bixter. The tree huggers will be at your door for deforestation and air pollution. Maybe some good old Alberta bitumen would be less polluting!
