Who it fits
- Your procedure permits a fixed 100A load
- 6V or 12V batteries within the stated rating limit
- An analog result is sufficient
- You can follow the manual’s load duration and safety limits
SOLAR / Clore 1852
A 100-amp fixed-load tester for 6V/12V work. It applies a physical load, but it is not an adjustable carbon-pile tester.

Who should skip it
- The procedure requires an adjustable carbon pile.
- You need 24V battery coverage.
- Explicit AGM/EFB qualification or a report is mandatory.
What changes the decision
Fixed means fixed
The engine groups physical-load tools separately from analyzers, but the label does not make 1852 interchangeable with a variable-load 1874.
100A versus 1000 CCA
Clore lists a 100A applied load and batteries up to 1000 CCA. These describe different quantities; do not read 1000 as the load current.
Chemistry remains conservative
The verified specification says lead-acid without naming individual types. We do not assume AGM or EFB support.

Why can a true-load result still need manual checking?
The finder separates methods; the service procedure still determines whether fixed or variable load, rating and operating limits are suitable.
What changes with 1874 or 1876?
1874 provides adjustable carbon-pile load for 12V. 1876 adds 6V/12V/24V coverage and a higher listed load capacity.
Sources and evidence
Capability dataset date (not a model-specific manufacturer-source check date): . Manufacturer documents support the capability fields; the buying guidance is our interpretation. No hands-on test, user-rating summary or independent performance measurement is claimed.
Clore 1852 specifications: 100A fixed load, 6V/12V, up to 1000 CCA. Not a carbon-pile claim.
