ABSTRACT:
A flashlight or a portable lantern having a built-in battery tester to determine the voltage or capacity of the battery, either under an electrical load or under no electrical load. The battery tester can comprise a voltmeter, ammeter, liquid-crystal cell, LED, color-indicating redox voltage-indicator cell, or a voltage battery-monitoring circuit that intermittently monitors the voltage of the batteries for brief pulses, compares the battery voltage with the standard reference voltage, and initiates a signal system if the battery voltage falls below the standard reference voltage.
