Autel BT608 (Battery Tester) Holder
Man, I love this battery tester, BUT hate keeping it in the case it comes with. I also could never figure out a decent way to store it without the cables falling off hooks due to the weight of the clamps. I then noticed that I needed to treat this almost like some battery jump boxes where you just clamp the clamps to “arms” that stick out. So I took inspiration from that and incorporated that into this holder along with using velcro to store the VCI that comes with it. First things first is that velcro gets attached to the backside of the device and to the VCI, the battery tester slides into the holder (screen facing away from you) and then you just clamp the clamps to the side arms. You might be wondering …well what about the long ass cable. I thought about adding some hooks but it was just sloppy and was more of a hassle for keeping it “Grab and Go”. I suggest mounting this higher than normal so the cable hangs down straight (coiling the cables on this makes it have memory which I hate)
