The Megger BI-10017 tip kit includes four replacement waffle-style Kelvin probe tips for the Megger BITE 3 pistol probes. The waffle tips provide contact on angled or uneven surfaces and surfaces with a thin layer of dirt or residue. These gold-plated-over-nickel probes provide low contact resistance and resist corrosion and wear better than silver-plated tips. The tips measure 1.42 x 0.156 inches (36.06 x 3.96 mm, H x D, where H is height, the vertical distance from the lowest to highest point; and D is diameter, the distance from left to right across a circle).
Battery testers are used in the industrial, commercial, medical, telecommunications, aircraft, power utility, and military industries to detect the health of a battery. They can measure conductance, impedance, voltage, and current, among other parameters. Battery testers are designed for specific types of batteries, such as lead-acid, nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH) and alkaline batteries. Some testers require a load to be applied to the battery during testing, and some do not. A variety of test leads with contacts, probes, clamps, clips, and other connectors can be used to connect a battery to a tester. Since different testers can measure different parameters to calculate battery health, it is important to use the same tester for consecutive tests on a single battery when analyzing changes in battery health over time.
