Default New Batterys installed

Got new US Batterys for my Sun Classic G3, Ive read the break- in thread on new Batts, put them on the charger at 1133 am est, the charger is at about 4 amps on the meter is that going to last 8 hours for the break in? THese batts were outside on a pallet when the guy loaded them on my truck. Any Advice Thanks Vince

Did you get the batteries fully charged ?

It will take 12 - 15 cycles for them to reach full potential.

What Charger do you have ?

I have a Lester Charger, it took about threes hours to bring them up, the charger shut off, I tookit for a short spin and brought it back and put it back on the charger then it was another 3 hours I did that about three times so far, I hope I did it right, and I hope it gets faster right now it feels like the old bats did.

Thanks , Did the speed bring up to what its suppose to do? Right now I'm not impressed , but by what I ve read it should get better with more cycles on the batterys. Vince

Yes they will get stronger after they 'break-in'. What amperage batteries did you put in it? Is your cart the resistor type?

Just curious on your batteries. Were they labeled US 2000XC or is this the battery that Battery Source (Ray Glass) is re-labeling under their name ?

My bro-n-law just got a set of their re-labeled ones, I'm thinking he paid $513 plus tax.

THe lable says that US Battery, I hope its not Ray Glass, I like the Glass's but I had trouble with their Bats along time ago, the date code on them is kind of long . I was going to let my buddys Interstate man look at and see if he new when they were made, I saw the ones at RG they had no lable on them whats so ever How were the RG bats relabled?

Seems like it was Battery Source "Pro Plus" or something like that. All it has is a stick-on label on top. Batteries were in a all black case.
