I got a chance to use my hydra volt today. It agreed precisely with my tried and true bobber. All cells on 3 Grp 24's were 1.275 with a couple at 1.265.
My work truck has been cranking slow lately so I decided to check it. It is a maintenance free battery so the caps were difficult to pry off. It has been sitting for a day and the voltage was 11.99. The indicator shows RED on the battery indication bad. All cells 1232 in the 1.165 range. Time for the company to buy me a new battery.
One thing I like about the hydra volt it it doesn't have to be held level in order to read it as long as the chamber is full. Since it is plastic and not glass there is less worry about breakage.
