Autel MaxiBAS BT608 Battery and Electrical System Tester

Autel MaxiBAS BT608 is a professional battery and electrical system tester that combines battery health analysis, starting and charging system testing, battery registration, and vehicle diagnostics in a compact 5.5” Android device.

BT608 uses Autel’s Adaptive Conductance technology to evaluate the actual condition of the battery, cold-cranking capability, and remaining capacity. The device is suitable for testing 12 V batteries both in and out of the vehicle.

In addition to battery testing, BT608 can test the vehicle’s starting and charging systems, register a new battery to the vehicle, and read and clear fault codes from supported vehicle systems. AutoVIN and battery barcode scanning help speed up the identification of the correct vehicle and battery information.

The built-in thermal printer allows test reports to be printed immediately without a separate printer. This makes BT608 especially practical for workshops, tyre shops, battery specialists, and other professionals performing battery tests and replacements on a daily basis.
