TOPDON BT600: Cold Weather Precision

Extreme winter temperatures highlight the need for precision tools that can handle cold weather diagnostics. For professionals especially, the last thing a shop wants is a customer to get stranded during a cold snap after their car has just been serviced. Smart repair facilities test every customer’s battery to head off those kinds of incidents. A proactive battery test is positive in the eyes of the customer and opens up additional revenue opportunities for the shop.

The TOPDON BT600 battery tester is the ideal tool for staying on top of a steady stream of customer vehicles. The BT600 is a robust tool that can conduct 12V battery tests, as well as cranking and charging tests on 12V and 24V systems. It can measure the actual cold cranking amps of the car’s battery and its state of health. Precise battery data can be viewed in seconds on the large 3.5-inch color LCD screen. The built-in thermal printer can print the exact content displayed on the screen, a welcome feature that allows the technician to hand a printout of the battery’s condition directly to the customer.

Professionals will appreciate the extra-long replaceable battery test cable, which allows technicians to use the tool from the driver’s seat. Safety is a key TOPDON priority, so the BT600 comes with premium large, reinforced, smoke-free, spark-free copper clamps, with reverse polarity protection. Should a new cable be needed, inexpensive replacements are available through TOPDON.

“Great device, fast and accurate, easy to use,” noted BT600 owner Chris J. in his product review. He’s not alone. The BT600 is a tool built for precision that will allow any shop to master winter diagnostics with ease.
