ABSTRACT:
A self-contained electronic device for testing storage batteries that may be partially discharged is disclosed. The testing device performs small-signal measurements of the battery's dynamic conductance and provides either a proportional numerical readout, displayed in appropriate battery measuring units, or a corresponding qualitative assessment of the battery's relative conduction based upon its electrical rating. In addition, the testing device measures the battery's open-circuit (unloaded) voltage and provides adjustable means for correcting the dynamic conductance test result in inverse correspondence with the battery's open-circuit voltage relative to its fully-charged value. By virtue of this correction, the quantitative or qualitative information displayed to the user in the dynamic conductance test is adjusted to comport with that of a fully-charged battery even through the battery may, in actual fact, be only partially charged when tested.
