Santa Fe Springs, CA — Test products: Phillips Industries has introduced the next generation of their V-CHECK  battery status indictor, a simple device that gives an immediate signal of available battery power. The V-CHECK II digitally monitors the state of power for any battery, particularly lift gate batteries, to ensure all work that needs to be performed can be performed. If the V-CHECK II signals less than optimum power, the battery can be charged before a situation occurs where battery power is required but not available.
 
The Phillips V-CHECK II test equipment features a large display surface for the digital read out of the battery state of charge. Both the voltage measurement and percentage of battery life remaining appear every 15 seconds. The Go/No-Go LED light feature instantly shows if the battery is ready to complete the day¹s work. Green indicates available power 12.6V to greater than 15V, yellow between 12.4V and 12.5V and red below 9V ­ 12.3V. It’s simple to install and gives the vehicle operator information that is critical to minimizing downtime caused by lack of battery power to complete required tasks.
 
Phillips¹s new 12 volt V-CHECK II Battery Status Indicator, part number 60-9100, is available through Phillips authorized distributors.
