Smart Battery Gadget

The rechargeable battery industry is not known for its gadgets but the Accutronics Smart Battery Reader is one of those pieces of kit that become invaluable once you have one. They plug directly into any smart battery fitted with a standard Tyco 5-way smart battery interface and draw power from the battery. A 2-line 16-character display shows each piece of smart battery data and the user can toggle between them using two buttons. There is even a serial port on the back for connection to a PC. You can find out more about this product here.



Once you have a reader you will know what you battery is thinking - know its state of charge, who made it, the serial number, the calibration status plus a myriad of other information which is important to the smart battery system.
