Re: battery charger help
that should shut off when the timer is down to zero if it works right, try putting it on for just a bit and watch it see if it shuts off when done..............................

Re: battery charger help
oh ok, if the timer dosn,t work but the charger does than yes you,ll have to keep your eyes on it........10 hours should give you a full charge, and i think you can still buy the timers for it if you want.........i was just checking some parts from site sponsers and came across a charger and i almost crapped my pants when i saw the price..............................

Re: battery charger help
thanks for the help it still works so i would like to continue using it if possible if the amp meter hits zero does that mean it fully charged? i want to break these new batteries in right without having to buy a new charger, the new batteries cost enough!!!!!!

Re: battery charger help
tell me about it i just priced a set of 8 volt private name i won,t mention but 172.00 apeice..............when it gets down to zero it might stay there for awhile before it would shut off so thats a hard one to answer.........the 1st few charges with new batteries if it were mine and i was guessing i would leave charge for at least 12 to 14 hours 1st 3 charges than drop to 8 to 10 hours for the next 6 charges than to 8 hours per charge after that and when your sure they are broke in and you,ll know the cart will tell you.......i would charge at least 6 to 8 hours.............................
