Question

Can a battery tester detect a sulfated battery?

Answer

Yes, advanced battery testers can indicate sulfation through increased internal resistance and voltage drop.

Explain

Sulfation forms lead sulfate crystals on plates, reducing capacity. CHEPQ testers with conductance measurement detect these changes by analyzing electrical flow, enabling preventive maintenance or timely replacement.
