Question
How does a load test on a battery work?
Answer
A load test applies a simulated electrical load to the battery to evaluate its ability to deliver current under stress.
Explain
CHEPQ's battery testers apply a controlled load that mimics starting an engine, measuring how voltage holds up. A healthy battery maintains voltage above a specific threshold; rapid drops indicate a weakened or failing battery, helping distinguish between surface charge and real performance.
