Autocare AC896

Like the big Ring unit, this had trouble with the laptop, failing to charge it at all. The rest of the kit proved no trouble, although it had a hard time when we tried to use more than a couple of items. Fingers were all you needed to change the leads, but they were around half the length of the best. Add the lack of a USB socket and this unit struggles in this company, despite the keen price.
