About this app

NOTE: B1 BATTERY TESTER HARDWARE IS REQUIRED FOR FULL FUNCTIONALITY

B2QScan software is a lead acid battery health analysis and data sharing application that works together with a B1 Battery Tester to help battery service providers and owners determine battery condition and track the health of 6 -12V lead acid batteries (wet, flooded, AGM.)

B2QScan instantly captures battery characteristics from an optical image generated by a B1 Battery Tester. Data may be shared between connected B2QScan user accounts.

B2QScan includes the following features:

- Optically captures battery test data from B1 Tester (B1 Battery Tester hardware required for this feature)*
- Optically captures battery UPC code*
- Optically captures VIN from vehicle bar code*
- Determines battery, starting system, and charging system health
- Enables user to save, email, print, share test reports instantly
- Cloud based backup and sharing of test data with connected users
- Manage multiple technician accounts per organization

* Camera functions are optimized for Android devices running v5 or greater with rear autofocus cameras of 6MP resolution or greater. Android devices with fixed focus cameras and low resolution cameras may experience image capture problems.

The B2QScan software and B1 Tester is an ideal battery management solution for automotive, heavy duty, marine, and RV technicians; fleet operators and service providers; vehicle and equipment owner / operators.

The B2QScan software and B1 Tester may also be used to simplify and automate the management of industrial lead acid batteries in electric vehicles, UPS, and telecom applications.

Ratings and reviews

The app and the reader dont seem to actually communicate with each other. You can see the read-out on the tester, and you can tell a battery is bad, but you scan the code and it comes up as charge and retest. I have tested batteries that i know are bad and gotten results that show a perfect battery. I have tested the same battery 5 times and have gotten different results on each test. It's absolutely terrible, but i have to use it for work so the customers suffer because of it.

The worst ever, constant crashes, very slow and buggy. Even if that wasn't enough to make the app entirely unusable it is designed in a way that is actively hostile to the user. Never gives any decent information. Makes my job 5x harder, would recommend literally anything else, or for this purpose. Nothing would be better to test batteries.

Terrible tester and terrible app. The clamps are difficult in that they often don't connect and they're plastic so you can't piggy back the jump start pack onto them, which is problematic on many vehicles. The app often crashes 2 or 3 times during a test and also freezes frequently. The phone doesn't read bar codes a lot so you have to manually enter data. The app has to be restarted every service call as well. The test is not thorough either. The old Midtronics tester was far superior.
