  • The Battery Beak is produced by Cross the Road Electronics.
    This is a battery load tester, capable of delivering an 18 amp load and measuring:
    • Internal resistance
    • State of charge (SOC)
    • Can determine the overall health of the battery
    The Battery Beak supports all battery chemistries but has additional features to determine battery health for both Lead Acid and NiMH chemistries in a variety of voltages and capacities. The Battery Beak mates directly with the SB-50A connector used in the FIRST Robotics Competition, but we've created bundles for FIRST Tech Challenge users to give them the same great experience. These bundles ship with the Battery Beak configured for the correct battery type and with the appropriate adapter cable for those battery terminals.

    The high resolution OLED display displays all the information you need for a quick decision on battery health:
    • Internal resistance
    • SOC
    • Open-load voltage
    • Voltage at 1 amp and 18 amps
    • Battery status of 'Good', 'Fair' or 'Bad'
    The internal resistance measurement is useful in determining if any bad cells are present. When the Battery Beak is used to track a battery's internal resistance over time and compared to its manufacturer specs, it is possible to determine when to take a battery out of service before a failure occurs. The built in power down feature allows the Beak to be connected to your battery indefinitely without draining your battery. The housing of the Beak is a durable ABS/Polycarbonate blend and mates directly to the Anderson SB-50A connector.

    Included with this part is the Battery Beak and a stylish lanyard.

    FIRST Tech Challenge Version Overview (am-3430)

Great

It works exactly as intended, and does a very good job at it! I love all of it's features, but could be a bit overwhelming for someone who doesn't need it all. Lucky for me, I do!

Knowledge is POWER

It is good to know if your batteries are any good. This tool lets you know which batteries are good and which need to be replaced. It is quick and effective.

Does what its supposed to!

Good product for electricians to check battery charge in the pits before matches.

Quick and easy to use

This battery tester is so easy to use. We have a 'collection' of batteries but I never felt comforatable getting rid of batteries just because they were old. When they acted up, we jsut put atag on them, 'Don't Use'. With this tester it only takes seconds to test them after they come off the charger. The definative Good- Fair - Bad grade makes the decision to keep or get rid of batteries easy.
