Launch BST360 Bluetooth Battery Tester – 12V Battery, Starting, and Charging System Analysis

The Launch BST360 is a compact Bluetooth battery tester for professionally testing 12V lead-acid batteries, starting systems, and charging systems. The tester connects wirelessly to a smartphone or a compatible Launch X-431 diagnostic device, clearly displaying all measurement data in the corresponding application.

With the BST360, you not only check the general condition of a battery but also gain insight into important values such as the State of Health (SOH) and State of Charge (SOC). In addition, the tester can analyze the vehicle's starting system and charging system.

Thanks to its extensive testing capabilities, the BST360 is suitable for use in workshops, garages, car dealerships, and for anyone who wants to quickly and reliably assess the condition of a vehicle battery.

Extensive Battery Diagnostics

The Launch BST360 performs various measurements to provide a complete picture of the battery and the vehicle's electrical system.

Battery Condition Test
Checks the battery's condition and charge status using, among other things, the SOH (State of Health) and SOC (State of Charge). This quickly determines whether the battery is still in good condition or needs replacement.

Starting System Test
Measures, among other things, the starting voltage and cranking time during engine start. This allows the performance of the battery and starting system to be assessed under load.

Charging System Test
Checks the alternator's output voltage at various loads. This determines whether the alternator and charging system are correctly charging the battery.

Ripple Voltage Test
Measures the alternator's ripple voltage. An abnormal ripple voltage can indicate problems with the alternator or rectifier diodes.

Wireless Bluetooth Connection

The BST360 features Bluetooth 4.2 and communicates wirelessly with a suitable mobile device or compatible Launch X-431 diagnostic tool. This means the tester only needs to be connected to the battery, and the measurement results can be viewed directly on the connected device.

Digital Test Reports

After a test, the results can be recorded in a clear digital report. These reports can be saved, shared, or printed, making the BST360 particularly suitable for professional use and customer documentation.
