Cornwell - Allied KL-5 Battery Cell Tester

[tressler]

Can anyone tell me how to use this? Or perhaps, do you have a manual you could send me?

Thanks!

It's a simple voltmeter, possibly with a load included, to measure the individual cells of a battery. Some industrial batteries can have cells replaced as needed, and you use this to check the cells.

Thanks for the reply. Since the probes have a strange coating on them, I was curious if it was used to measure the individual cells... in the acid...

Additionally, does anyone know what it might be worth?

Looking at it, it seems to be just a simple volt meter. The two way needle looks as if to measure the absolute voltage if a cell, without consideration to positive/negative polarities

In short: volt meter with a guide to try and correlate cell voltage with cell condition
