How Far Will A Stock TXT Go

Rickochet · 03-08-2012, 07:53 AM

I have a stock '07 TXT PDS 36v. with new batteries. I always like to plan ahead and I am looking for some options for storing the cart next winter. I might be able to store in a storage unit 3 miles away on a rural road. I know there are lots of variables but I was curious what the SOC would be if I drove it 3 miles over relatively flat terrain.

Also is it safe to leave the Powerwise QE charger plugged in for 5 months and come by maybe once per month and check the water levels?

If you drive 3 miles to a storage facility you can plug the charger in when you get there. For the best results you want to put the wet cell batteries into storage with a full charge... Simply check water and disconnect then replug the charger once a month after that.
