Cable for electronic battery tester
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A battery tester cable for coupling an electronic battery tester to a battery, comprising:
- a first clamp configured to provide a Kelvin connection to a first electrical terminal of the battery;
a second clamp configured to provide a Kelvin connection to a second electrical terminal of the battery;
an electrical connection configured to electrically couple to the electronic battery tester;
a first cable which electrically connects the first clamp to the electrical connection;
a second cable which electrically connects the second clamp to the electrical connection; and
a moveable cable holding device which can be positioned along a length of the first and second cables to thereby secure the first and second cables and reduce errors in battery tester measurements due to separation between the first and second cables and adjust the cables for differing battery sizes.

9. A method of testing a battery with an electronic battery tester, comprising:
-
placing a first clamp on a first terminal of the battery to provide a first Kelvin connection to the battery;
placing a second clamp on a second terminal of the battery to provide a second Kelvin connection to the battery; and
positioning a moveable cable holding device along a length of a first cable which electrically couples the first clamp to the battery tester and a second cable which electrically couples the second clamp to the battery tester at a position to reduce errors in measurements by the electronic battery tester due to separation between the first and second cables. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
