Frequently Asked Questions

The AutoMeter SB-3 is designed to test 6V and 12V lead-acid starting batteries across automotive, commercial, marine, and motorsport applications with capacities ranging from 0 to 1000 Cold Cranking Amps (CCA).

The carbon pile mechanism allows technicians to manually control and apply up to 500 Amps of electrical load directly to the battery. This simulates high starter motor current demand while real-time voltage and amperage are monitored on the dual analog meters.

No external power connection or internal batteries are required. The AutoMeter SB-3 draws its operational power directly from the 6V or 12V battery under test, making it completely self-contained and portable.
