If you are doing a lot of EMS then i would recommend investing in a Mini Cell checker from Solo.  very handy for checking the batteries

Found it in: http://www.detectortesters.com/cms/document/Product_Sheet_008_Cellchecker_Cell01_001.pdf

This is a good tool Grame, but it is not specific for EMS stuff, still the main issue is the old detectors of EMS which have batteries soldered on the PCB...etc, how can you test them with either Cellcheker or other alternatives without unsoldering them... since testing them while within the circuit, wouldn't give the right reading.

Also we have got only very few EMS related sites, comparing to what we have in total...

agreed Benz but good for new EMS equipment.

i have used it loads and it really takes the guess work out when you go to a supply management fault in a device.
