Tools and Hardware Reviews of ZTS Mini Battery Tester - ZTS MINI-MBT
Customer Review: Battery Tester USA
Summary: 4 Stars
You get what you pay for. I have tried so many of the cheap imported testers that work for a short while and then breaks for no apparent reason. I'm happy to find a domestic product and I'll pay the extra. This tester covers most household batteries. I like the feature where it puts a load on the battery to test its integrity, not just the voltage. A little care when removing the probe,I feel this is the weakest link, and it should be around for years.Customer Review: Best tester

We've had a huge bag of supposedly dead batteries sitting the garage for over a year now. It would just sit there and stare at me daily. I knew that they could all be dead. After ruling out the cheapo $2 testers, I purchased this one and gave it a try last night.
After reading the instructions thoroughly, I tested each battery 3 times. It took about an hour to go through them all, but I was impressed with my findings. Quite a few still had 40-60% power and other had 80-100%! The 40-60% crowd would still suffice for low-powered items like TV remotes, etc.
I divided them all up into individual zip-type bags (making sure none of the contacts touched) and labeled them: 0-20% (for recycling), 40-60%, and 80-100%.
You can see in the photo I posted the results. Definitely a must-own product. Wish I bought it years ago!
Why 4 stars? The storage pouch should be included, not an extra $6.00.
Customer Review: Excellent Product!!!

As stated in several other reviews, the ZTS Mini Multi-Battery Tester is a "load" tester which gives much better readings than non-load testers. I also have the cheaper Delkin Aa/aaa Battery Tester and both testers are pretty much in sync with battery readings 90% of the time with the ZTS occasionally reading one bar higher. I have a bit more confidence using both testers.
After going through the almost 40 supposedly "dead" batteries my kids have accumulated, I found about 12 with still 80% life; another 9 with 40-60% life; and another 5 or so with still 20% life which will work fine in TV remotes. So these testers will pay for themselves in no time and in the long run save me money.
