Need a new battery to test an old battery?
Product requires a brand new battery to perform accurate test on old batteries. This was confirmed with the manufacturer. But it is not stated as such in the user manual.
The readings it produced without first testing a new battery indicated that my 6 year old batteries had more capacity than they were ever designed to have. And not just a little more, they are 28Ah and this tester tested them to be 38Ah.
The manufacturer claims that the tester is a "professionally accurate reserve capacity battery load tester" "quick and accurate results". But it does not provide accurate tests without having a new battery to test an old battery.

QUESTIONS:
I have an RC-300. Says you can use the AC-12 for pc connections. How does that work? Can you download battery results?
Please see "PC Interface" in this instruction:

Hi , I am using RC-300 , I would like to know the meaning of CF value . How it used and why . Thanks in advance
The Correction Factor only comes into play when using the Database of battery types. Due to significant variation across manufacturers of low current batteries, the factory specs may be the same, but the actual performance of the batteries may differ. So you establish a Database of specific batteries, which gives the tester a Correction Factor to properly test that specific battery.

What testers are still made in USA?
Thank you for your question. While the majority of AutoMeter products are made in the USA, a majority of our testers including the RC-300 are made in China.

I have RC-300. Can I use it to test Car batteries? Right now I use it mainly for testing our SLA batteries used in our UPS. Or do I need to get SB-300?
Hi Bud,
The RC-300 will not test Automotive batteries. You might want to check out the SB-300:

I have 2 of these and my old one (before it quit working) would allow me to communicate to it through terminal software and pull up the battery history and more, the new one does not. Is there a way to make the new one allow this again?
Thank you for your inquiry. There is no way to make the current RC-300 do what you want it to.
