Hydrometer Simple Battery Tester | Lead-Acid Specific Gravity Kit Kenya
KSh700
Features
- Instant Specific Gravity Tracking: Measures relative density across a standard laboratory and automotive range (typically 1.100 to 1.300 g/ml) to assess precise chemical charge capacity
- Color-Coded Float Indicator: Features a clear internal float with distinct color zones (Red for Discharged, White for Low Charge, and Green for Fully Charged) for foolproof visual diagnostics
- Acid-Resistant Construction: Built from highly durable, impact-resistant transparent glass or clear acrylic polymer to withstand regular exposure to corrosive battery acid
- Heavy-Duty Suction Bulb: Equipped with a premium rubber siphon bulb and a flexible, tapered nozzle tip for safe, mess-free extraction from hard-to-reach battery cells
- Universal Applications: Fully optimized for testing automotive batteries, deep-cycle solar storage banks, marine vessels, agricultural machinery, and industrial UPS backups.
Hydrometer Simple Battery Tester for Lead-Acid Batteries
Keep your vehicles, solar storage systems, and backup power supplies running efficiently with our Hydrometer simple battery tester. This essential, cost-effective diagnostic tool measures the specific gravity (relative density) of the sulfuric acid electrolyte solution inside conventional flooded lead-acid batteries. By checking individual cell density, you can instantly determine the state of charge, isolate failing cells, and maximize battery longevity.

Understanding the Test Results
A simple battery hydrometer operates on basic fluid density principles. As a lead-acid battery discharges, sulfuric acid reacts with the lead plates, turning into water and lowering the electrolyte’s density.
- Green Zone (1.265 – 1.300): The cell is fully charged and chemically healthy.
- White Zone (1.210 – 1.250): The cell has a low charge or fair capacity; recharging is recommended.
- Red Zone (1.100 – 1.200): The cell is completely discharged or structurally dead, requiring immediate servicing or replacement.
Note: Your battery is only as good as its weakest cell. If readings between individual cells vary by more than 0.050, it indicates localized failure or advanced sulfation.
