Since I have had this battery tester I have been able to clean up my battery drawer and get rid of the batteries that were not usable. It is easy to use and it easily fits in my drawer with my batteries where it can be easily accessed when needed. The best part is the only batteries needed are the ones you are checking.

Quickly measures batteries , especially for portable equipment, quickly for a "go/no go" status .

9 bolt battery did not fit tester. Bummer.

It's a great tool, replaces the old paper strip testers. Saves time testing with a VOM meter.

This battery tester works very well. At first it didn't work, but since all the previous reviews rated it 5 stars, we thought there was no way ours would be the faulty one. We had made sure the contacts were correctly being made and the AA battery was positioned with the positive terminal pointing down. It still didn't work. As a last resort, we thought maybe the needle was just stuck, so we gave the unit a good bang on the table, and sure enough, the needle was free. It works just fine!

The online order app worked ‘perfect’. This analog battery tester is actually an ‘upgraded’ version of an earlier model I still have which still works. The new model solves the problem of the older model where you may get an invalid reading if you don’t press firmly on the tester terminal contacts to the terminals of the battery under test. RS IS manufacturing its products at ‘off shore’ factories (like everyone else) but have maintained good quality control standards so products are consistent cosmetically and functionally. Now that I realize that RS is still around (online) I’ll be a regular shopper again. RADIO SHACK IS BACK | YEAH!!!

The meter is a great device. Performs the task of checking a battery's voltage effortlessly.

The battery tester works well. Its easy to use and takes the guess work out of troubleshoot devices that use batteries.
I would purchase this again.

I have always hesitated about discarding batteries, wondering if they still had some power.
This Radio Shack tester is so simple to use and shows me how much if any power remains.
I really like it.

Your batteries are always first rate, and the battery checker really helps me see which batteries are still ok to use.

Very handy gadget, checks 2032 type batteries, 9V,AAA, etc.

Not spring loaded like previous ones years ago
Works as expected, years ago Radio Shack had one that was spring loaded for making contact on both ends instead of having to manually press the tab to contact on the negative end for AAA AA C and D batteries
AL
Simple It works
a bit confusing at 1st on placing AA to test, checks batteries just fine.
could have use a spring on positive slider to ease testing
Ralph
It Works
Basic system, battery must be upside down, this was a little confusing or concerning (gave me the wrong impression). However, as simple and basic this tool is, it works perfectly. Yes, you have to make sure the battery is making contact, no big deal, is very easy to do. A tester that it is a must to have, specially if you have several gadgets at home, like remote controller, PC mouse and/or wireless keyboard, Game Controller...etc.
Elizabeth Massey
Good Battery Tester
This battery is a good tester, even though you must sure contact is connecting properly.
Lewis Timothy Lang
Excellent
Very Satisfied!
Jack
Handy!
I didn't realize I'd be using this so much. I was dragging out my volt meter before but it was a pain holding both leads and the battery at the same time to check. This tester makes it so much easier. Nice!
Howie
Great Tool

Easy-to-use battery tester!
This mlittle battery tester proved its worth immediately as I was able to keep or discard several 9 volt, AA & AAA batteries right after opening the package!

Battery tester
This product is great and easy to use.

It is a very cool and useful gadget.

Great Little Battery Tester!!
This is great accessory for the kitchen drawer or your hobby room to test all those batteries you find laying around. It's small, easy to use, handles the most common batteries we use in toys, flashlights, etc., and tells you right away whether the battery is worth saving. And the best part is that it's very affordable, which makes it a great buy!
Michael Smalls
Excellent device for the price
Excellent device for the money spent works exactly as described perfect!!! Now you don’t have to discard batteries without knowing how much charge remains
David
so awesome!!
I had one of these from Radio Shack in high school. Sooooo happy it's back! Works great and even better than the older models! Tests everything perfectly!
James Redman
Very impressive!
This works very well with reading the amount of energy left in alkaline batteries, weather it is new/used. It can be very helpful, especially with anything which does not provide a reading on how much energy remain in batteries. Helps a person to know if the problem in with a battery or something else.
M Keller
Works great!
This is so easy to use and handy to have. Works great!

Donna Marshall
Battery Tester
I own another model from Radio Shack from years ago and that one does not check the small flat batteries.
So when I seen this one I wanted it because it will test the little ones.
Thank you

Radio Shack Quality
Works Like A Charm
Jerome Pancoast
GREAT little item!!!
This battery tester also checks watch batteries. Now I can check the batteries in many devices and LED flashlights all different sizes, weather stations, TV remotes, and my wife's many watches that all use different batteries. In the past, I would have to get out my DVM to check batteries. Looking forward to using this Summer in my Motor Home.

Good tester for household batteries
I keep this in my battery drawer, as it is small and compact. Easy to use. I tested some of the batteries I had on hand and found a few of my AA and AAA batteries to be dead or low, so I've thrown those out. Now I need to order more batteries! :-)
Hurry up! Only left in stock.
