Better to know the actual voltage since rechargeables have different nominal voltages than alkaline.
Sweet, even better (and cheaper too!)deal4me wrote: ↑ I have the Pro model which can do 18650 batteries.

Ah great, I already have the analog one (came with Costco battery holder case), the digital one (from ali)...now I know there's yet another better one lol.deal4me wrote: ↑ I have the Pro model which can do also 18650 batteries.

Nice. I have a multimeter if I want to know the voltage. But realize not everyone owns a multimeter.Azalin84 wrote: ↑ This is the type you should probably be getting:

But this doesn't work for alkaline or lithium batteries....the website says.Azalin84 wrote: ↑ This is the type you should probably be getting:

Hah. Must be a typo since that's literally what they're for.Unknown604 wrote: ↑ But this doesn't work for alkaline or lithium batteries....the website says.
You sure can, but not everyone owns a multimeter. I mean when I moved out by myself, I never owned a multimeter for years because, well, I didnt need one since I never owned a home to work on things. So I bought something like this to use to test batteries.
The only thing about multimeters is that they don't put a load on the battery so the multimeter will frequently show a higher voltage than a decent battery tester will. Why do you want a load on the battery when testing? Because for high drain uses (ie a toy motor), a loaded battery tester will be more representative of what the battery will do when used. If you are using the battery in a remote control, then a multimeter will be just fine as a remote is a low load device.
