I can't believe it!!
Every one of my batteries (all 6) were dry. It took 3gal of water to get them back to normal!! They were severely abused. I can only hope that the water will get them atleast 75% back to a normal battery!!

Re: I can't believe it!!
3 gallons, sure you dont have a leak somewhere. Make sure you charge them fully overnight, check them tomorrow and let us know what kind of readings you get... Hopefully they live!

Re: I can't believe it!!
I put the caps back on instead of leaving them open (but I did leave about 1/4in of space inside the cells). I keep my cart in my enclosed trailer. Is there any risk of fire or anything?

Re: I can't believe it!!
I think your batteries are likely done. After charging check them all with a hydrometer to ascertain the condition.
Leave the trailer door open when you charge it. |

Re: I can't believe it!!
Batteries can be explosive especially in their current condition. Make sure their is no gas or anything cumbustable near them. I would feel more comfortable if their was some ventilation in your trailer. Open a window or prop the door.

Re: I can't believe it!!
Yeah, yeah, yeah... How long have you had this cart? We all know the first thing you do when you get your cart is check the water level
 . Common now? |
