PD plus battery algorithm?

biggdave921

Picked up a 2019 precedent yesterday. Has new PD + batteries. 6/8v setup. ERIC charger. What algorithm do I need to use for the charger? Thank you for any help!

The ERIC is already factory set with the correct algorithm for PD+ since those are original batteries.

A few of the ERIC charger threads here have mentioned what number the factory set algorithm, you can probably find those in a search.

31 and you won't find it on Delta Q's website...

Finally had a chance to research this ERIC charger algorithm stuff. I have '18 PD+ batteries, and what I assume is a factory set charger (came with the cart from a local re-seller). Since the ERIC charger is set to this from the factory (per the comment above), will I be able to verify algorithm 31 if I pull the info off the charger?

Yes...Once you download the IDAT software from Delta Q's website onto your computer...You can then put a formatted thumb drive in the charger and it will download the data to it automatically...Then Import the info from the thumbdrive to the IDAT software...

Make sure that the charger is plugged into ac power only and not the cart..Green light will stop flashing when the download is complete...Can take 2-3 minutes..

Those PD+ batteries are not very good...I have them in my 2017 and they are on life support and I take care of them...Trojans in my future...$$$

Thanks movin-on. I'll work on it tomorrow. Only had the cart for about a year, but no issues with those batteries yet. It is just a neighborhood cart that gets used a hand full of times a week, and usually no longer than 20 min at a time.

Checked the algorithm this afternoon, this charger is running #256, NOT #31 like suggested above. I sent a request to Delta to verify/request the correct one (since it's not on their website).

Mine is #31 and is perfect for the PD+ batteries...Others have #256..Both probably Club Car specific...Let us know what Delta Q says...

Nothing yet, but will let you know when I get a response. Could be delayed if they are "non-essential". Question, do any of these algorithms incorporate a maintainer feature, or should they be unplugged as soon as the charge is complete?
