THE BENEFITS OF ADVANTAGE DIGITAL

Conductance-based diagnostics, noise immunity, and wireless data transfer, engineered for reliable field testing.

CADD - Icon - Conductance.psd

Accurate Conductance Testing

Conductance-based diagnostics deliver a highly accurate, reliable predictor of a battery’s end of life. Edge Rejection technology filters anomalies at the start and end of each sample for cleaner, more precise readings.

CADD - Icon - Faster.psd

Faster Testing Times

Just connect the two test leads (by clamp or lighted probe) to the positive and negative posts and test in a matter of seconds.

CADD - Icon - Wireless.psd

Wireless Communication

Built-in Wi-Fi moves data to and from the tester with no additional cards, cords, or hardware required.

CADD - Icon - Noise.psd

High Noise Immunity

A powerful dual-microprocessor architecture stands up to the high-noise UPS / switching environments that cause other testers to fail.

CADD - Icon - Protection.psd

Device & User Protection
