Good video. You can select the exact battery capacity you desire by pressing on the numbers in the grey box (right-hand side above the presets) and type-in the exact number required. You might then get closer results to your paper-based examples? Your clips are they same as mine which was purchased direct from Launch earlier this week.
Nice tip. I never thought of that lol and I haven't seen anyone else do that yet... I sold my launch Tester on, mainly because the app won't work on my phone, I've stayed with the sealey as the app works both on my diag and my phone and I found the build quality that bit better.
A battery tester would be better than cheaper alternatives if you could connect it to the battery while driving and see the SOC (State of Charge) as an instantaneous value and as a graph in time. I don't understand for the life of me why all cars don't have the SOC displayed all the time on our dashboard.
@zbigniewrichard8291 Most modern cars do monitor the state of charge and state of health them self's. You can use diagnostic computers to see it in live data. Like yourself, I believe that info should be accessible on the dash. Some cars will give you battery voltage and charge voltage, but don't give you a state of health which is the most important, if your car gave you that info or popped up a warning saying battery heath bellow minimum requirement please replace, it would prevent a lot of flat battery breakdowns lol
@@azerotha4531 That is exactly what I want to avoid since most modern cars (including my car) don't even alert you about the battery's state of health. You just find that bad news at the worst possibly moment. I am particulary annoyed about missing SOC value on the dashboard since the electrical system of my car has a Battery Monitoring System device near the negative pole of the battery. That is why I presumed BST360 can send continuous data to my compatible Launch X431 Pro5 tablet that will draw a graph under Battery Test section.
