I couldn't find a battery tester but here's a vintage Phillips 66 gas station

Any idea of the timeframe for this item?? I have several pieces of literature on battery testers that I can check.

One of my weekly auction haunts had a Gulf battery and charging system tester a few weeks back. It was complete but rough as a cob. Someone else wanted it way worse than I did...

Appeared to be 50s or earlier by the Gulf logo.

I have no time frame.

I was vague in my question. I was looking for the timeframe of the battery charger, like 30's 40' 50's ect. The ebay link you posted is similar to the Snap-on charger I have. I had (but sold) three nos 1940's chargers made by the Allen company that were able to charge up to 5 batteries at a time. They were much smaller than your e-bay item and were more of a trickle charger that would have been used by battery dealers to keep their inventory ready to use.

Here is the Picture. I was on the road...It looks like a Century 141-066.

Not a Phillips 66 battery charger.

That one is newer than I expected. It mentions charging maintenance free batteries so its much later than my Snap-on unit and newer than anything in my literature collection. A good freind of mine operated a Phillips 66 station for many years. I don't recall him having a Phillips 66 specific battery charger but he did have a roll around unit that he probably got from NAPA as that was his favorite place to get supplies.
