Does this tool read the battery state of charge for a Chevy volt or Nissan leaf?

It doesnt work. Dont buy. Cant even compare it with the simplest obd2 you get at you auto store.

Electric cars do have an OBDII port. But you would have to contact IOBDII to find out if it will read state-of-charge. The App I have has no state-of-charge indicator but does show vehicle voltage. Unlike other responders my iOBDII works flawlessly.

It measures the battery's ability to deliver high currents. The lower the battery internal resistance the greater current it can deliver. The tester places a very high load on the battery for a extremely short time and measures the current flow (or voltage drop). It then calculates the cold cranking amp value. As long as the battery has some charge it can "predict" the ability to deliver current when fully charged. I have stopped using my load tester since buying this tester.

No it does not. Just give status of each battery as its going thru the charge cycle. It probably works this way because you can charge different capacity batteries like AA and AAA in the same charge cycle.

Yes this tool gives you voltage readings, temps (air inlet, coolant, etc), throttle position %, engine load, RPM, MPH, instant fuel usage and may other readings. I drive with my laptop connected to vehicle and you can save info from trip also. You will need a much more sophisticated tool if you want to do more than get readings. I think it a very good basic diagnostic tool for the money.

It is made to work only with the charge controller made by Trace. You can hook your load to it and have it give you real time information as long as you don't exceed 20 amps.

Yes, you push a button and it tells how much charge is left on the battery.

You would have to use a battery tester or a voltmeter whcih will tell you if there is still a charge on the battery

Yes- even is says 6 or 12 Volts- it will still check a 8 volt put the Red on the + side and the Black on the _ side and read the volts should read 7 or better --Then hold the load switch and it should read between 12 and 6 volt if is not a bad battery-Some of the old car restorers use 8 volt Batteries in what used to call for 6 Volt to make them turn over faster

Absolutely! Matter of fact this multi-tester is so powerful, handy and easy to use, and with auto range feature; for instant, if you want to test your battery, just slide the switch to volt and read voltage instantly. This one is always in my pocket, every time when I want to test something quick, am always grab this one instead of my other big and expensive ones. My son always wants to borrow this little one for his robot project. Trust me, you will love it.

it can measure mA to see if you have a car battery drain.. I believe it can read mV as it goes several decimal places when evaluation AA and AAA batteries

You can test the voltage with DCV 20, but that only tell you voltage.To test the a battery you fully charge it. The you test it with a battery draw tester to see if the battery is any good .that's a different tester.

I do not know the DC voltage of a golf cart, but it will test the 8-volt battery. Is the battery fully charged? The tester comes with an owner's manual which offers a detailed description of the tester's capabilities and test instructions.

yes it detects whether its a 6 volt or 12 volt but this is a floating charger works best when the battery is in storage ( during winter months )

It only tells you the voltage going from the coil to the spark plug. It doesn't give you voltage from the stator to the CDI or from the CDI to the coil.

The charger itself does not have that ability (that I know of).The Volt does provide that functionality. I would assume the Leaf or Tesla would have that too.

Depends on the installed app. It will if the program allows for it. I use it with the torque app for android and can only do engine electronics but reads real time. Great item for the price. Works like a charm

The device only responds to the current voltage and gives a number. If you are driving, the vehicle voltage will vary depending on the load put on your battery, the battery condition and the alternator output.
