Winter ride
Well we have been socked in all winter here in Mass. so the cart hasnt been charged or played with sence put away in oct. However when going to the garage to get the car and pick up the little one from the bus. there she sat. Quietly sulking in the corner ignored. So I took her to go get the kiddo. It is amazing how she lit up, and just sat there saying "camping starts in 2 monthes"
But the old 85 did great! So much for worrying about not giving a full charge in the fall! |

Re: Winter ride
FYI - if you store or let the cart sit without keeping a full charge the batteries will suffer a loss of potential capacity, period. Keep them charged up when not in use... recharging once every month should do it.

Re: Winter ride
Obviously she knows batteries sulfate when left in a state of discharge which results in a diminished ability of the lead plates and electrolyte to exchange electrons reducing the battery's useful life! Smart Girl you got there

Re: Winter ride
Haaa Plus she lets me touch her no no spots!No this is my first cart and atill learning about it. It was built by a friend as a frankencart. 84 CC but wired for the Textron charger. It goes very well, and now I jsut have to figure out how to put the battery guage in and wire it. Unfortunatly my son bought it for me for christmass and It came wioth O directions.
