Using Accucell 6 to measure battery voltage

Batteries and Chargers Chargers

Hi,

I have only the main + and - connectors from the Accucell 6 connected to a single lithium battery.

I know that I can get the Accucell 6 to measure the battery voltage by holding Status and Start buttons while powering the Accucell 6 on, but I was wondering if anyone know if there’s any way to get the Accucell 6 to measure the battery voltage without having to power the Accucell 6 off and on?

Thanks,
Jim

Not that I am aware of. It will display the resting voltage for a split second when starting to charge or discharging. To fast to be accurate from what I have seen.
From what you are describing above, sounds like you are putting the charger in calibration mode.

Hi,

I think that that’s correct…. the Accucell 6 shows the battery voltage when it goes into calibration mode… see video:

It’d be nice if it was possible to get it to do that without having to power it off then on, and avoid having to use a separate voltmeter sometimes… more for convenience, I guess.

Thanks,
Jim
