i have a 07 CC precedent with the 08 Black Trojans. CC came and turned up my speed said i should be around 22-23 with my wheels and tires. I have been dealing with this for months now, there wasa radar police thing I am going 16 -17 i knew I have lost speed, I have tesetd the batteries and they are 12.5 and on load the lowest is 10.5 and the rest are around 11 is possible iits my batteries i know the Black one have problems.

From your reading you only have one battery ( 12.5 Volts which is only 80% of charge ) while others battery at 11 and 10.5 are completely dead ( lowest 10 % reading is 11.5 Volts ). If these readings were taken after charger had turned off "by itself" and you waited at least "one hour" before taking readings you are a candidate for a 8 volt conversion? To confirm battery conditions get a single float temperature correcting hydrometer ( NOT A MUTI FLOAT ANTIFREEZE TESTER ) and check each cell in each battery and compare with readings found in Stickies Titled ( State Of Charge Readings ).

ok thanks under load where the readings and this is also after about a mile or two drive

So there is no surface charge left and so your posted reading are correct, IF THE CHARGER HAD SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN? In that case to confirm battery conditions I would do hydrometer test and BE READY FOR NEW SET OF BATTERYS I"M AFRAID?

I figured, thanks... who on here sells the trojans

OLD MEC

I always try and get batterys as near as possible to my location as batterys shipping weight along with being hazardous materials pushes costs sky high.
