Current/Amp meters Amp meters (or ammeters) measure current and are fitted inline between your battery and the loads (the circuits being powered) and can be a useful addition for monitoring your battery. If you know how many amps are consumed and for how long, you have a measurement of Ah (amps x hours).
This lets you identify precise charging and discharge rates for your batteries, while letting you find the precise capacity so you know how much energy you still have spare to power your electronics, appliances or other power-hungry projects.
Additionally, when combined with Zero Voltage Discharge Module ZVD80, BLU-A enables full battery discharge down to 0 V with up to 60 A, required before battery recycling. An overview of the maximum discharge current for BLU-A models for various battery voltage levels can be found in the table below.
DV Power’s battery load unit BLU-A is a portable, powerful, and lightweight solution for battery capacity measurement. It is applicable to any battery string such as lead-acid, Li-Ion, Ni-Cd, etc., with up to 500 V battery voltage. As a special feature, the BLU100L model enables the capacity testing of a single Li-Ion cell.
The 12V Lead Acid Battery Capacity & Voltage Meter is the perfect little module for anyone who loves batteries and keeping their electronics or appliances charged despite the sometimes-unreliable power grid.
The battery capacity test is performed to determine the health of a battery. DV Power’s battery load unit BLU-A is a portable, powerful, and lightweight solution for battery capacity measurement. It is applicable to any battery string such as lead-acid, Li-Ion, Ni-Cd, etc., with up to 500 V battery voltage.
