Battery tester

[carnkev]

Hi, must get a battery tester for testing remote fobs when they come in. Is there any one in particular good for the job?

Thanks

We use a draper fob and remote tester, had it at least 15 years still going strong only change the battery about once every 2 years

When I do a set up with customers, i generally ask them to have a Key DIY tool - like the KD-X2 below . 

this has many functions, but one simple added function is the signal reader . 

this does not test the battery, but it tests if the fob is sending a signal out

you can then test every button of the fob , eg if its to " Re-shell " the fob you can test it its working correctly before taking anythjng apart . 

so the end cusotmer can not say " Well it was working before hand " ...
