Digital Voltage Reading DURING Use
Just wondering if anyone has info or has documented any voltage readings during USE using the much used Digital Meter Displays; As you would expect, the voltage varies during use/load, and we know to let the cart sit a few minutes below getting our true pack voltage.
That said, for instance, is there a particular voltage that you might want to eye on full throttle/load to also ensure you dont over drain the battery pack. I've noticed for instance mine can drop as low as 45V on full throttle un a slight hill, loading the system. Just curious |

Re: Digital Voltage Reading DURING Use
VW,
I am sorry to deviate from the topic of the thread.... BUT, is the girl in your profile pic shining your wheels by grinding on them? I certainly hope so... |

I think I may begin some logging of data to see what, if anything, it tells me.... |

Re: Digital Voltage Reading DURING Use
VW3858-- Each cart will vary in voltage usage even though they are same make and model and came from factory the same, but still will run different because of so many different factors. Weight load, tire size, tire inflation, motor size, pedal position, controller size, cable size, plus terrain, wind resistance are just a few factors. The only thing you will come up with is maybe an average? I am able to get by with a light pedal by being in a flat area with smooth paved streets and having short runs in interior of park. Others of you will have complete different terrain to travel in.

Re: Digital Voltage Reading DURING Use
Figured that was probably the case. I just use mine to let me know my unloaded charge so that I know when its time to grab the extension cord. That is the cool part of having an on-board charger. All I need is an extension cord and a 110v outlet.
