Mid-range professional tester with printer. Tests battery, alternator and cranking system.
The BT860 sits in the middle of the Autool range — professional enough for workshop use with a built-in printer, but at a lower price than the BT760. It tests the battery, alternator, and cranking system — the three components of the starting system that can leave you stranded. The thermal printer produces a professional report that includes all three test results, which can be handed to the customer to document the diagnosis.
vs BT760: The BT760 adds an actual load test which is more accurate. For a busy workshop, the BT760 is worth the extra ₹4,000. vs BT880: The BT880 has no printer — the BT860 is the right choice when customer documentation is needed.
