Batteries play a vital role in our daily lives, whether they’re used in mobile phones, laptops, or other electronic devices. However, over time, the performance of these batteries gradually degrades. Therefore, regularly testing the battery’s condition not only helps extend its lifespan but also helps identify potential problems ahead of time, ensuring safe operation of your equipment.
Why test batteries?
Battery performance degrades over time
As batteries are used, their internal chemical composition gradually changes, resulting in a decrease in capacity and discharge capacity. Regular testing can help us understand the battery’s current health, allowing us to take appropriate measures to slow down its degradation.
Regular testing helps extend battery life
By regularly testing batteries with a battery maintenance instrument, we can identify and address any issues promptly, effectively extending the battery’s lifespan. This not only saves the cost of replacing new batteries but also reduces environmental impact.
Detecting potential problems early ensures device safety
Defective or damaged batteries can lead to equipment failures or even accidents. By using a battery maintenance instrument for testing, we can identify these problems ahead of time and take appropriate measures to ensure the safe operation of your equipment.

Common Problems and Solutions During Use
When using the portable battery pack charge and discharge maintenance device, you may encounter some common problems. The following details these problems and their solutions to help you better use the device.
What should I do if the battery is not recognized?
If the maintenance device does not recognize the battery after connecting it, first check the connections. Make sure all connectors are properly inserted and not loose. If the connection is correct but the device still cannot recognize the battery, it may be due to an incompatible battery type. In this case, you can check the Guheng Energy product manual to confirm whether the maintenance instrument you are using supports the current battery type. For devices that support multiple battery types, such as single-cell charge and discharge maintenance instruments, ensure that the correct test mode is selected.
What should I do if the displayed data is abnormal?
If the maintenance instrument displays abnormal data, first check whether the connection between the instrument and the battery is stable. Secondly, check whether the set parameters, such as the charge and discharge current and voltage range, are correct. If everything is normal but the data is still abnormal, try restarting the instrument or replacing the battery with another one. In addition, use the software update function provided by Guheng Energy to ensure that the instrument is always running the latest version, which can help fix known issues.
What should I do if there is a sudden power outage during testing?
If a power outage occurs during testing, immediately check the power supply line and outlet to rule out external power supply issues. Guheng Energy’s products are designed to accommodate sudden power outages. For example, battery pack charge and discharge maintenance instruments have an automatic recovery function that allows unfinished testing to resume after power is restored. To prevent data loss, please regularly back up important data to a USB flash drive or other storage device.
