Powerwise charger
My Power wise charger kicks off after 4 or 5 hours of charging at 12 amps on the ammeter on charger. This seems awful high to me, I thought it should go down to at least 4 or 5 on meter before kicking off. If this is not correct what could be causing this?

Re: Powerwise charger
Here are some stats from my last charge:
As soon as charger kicked off: Total volts: 39.9 Individual battery volts: 6.57, 6.56, 6.57, 6.52, 6.50, 6.56 2 hours later: Total volts: 37.7 Individual Battery volts: 6.28, 6.30, 6.30, 6.28, 6.27, 6.29 Batteries tested with 50 AMP load meter and all stayed in green. Powerwise charger reading 12 amps when kicked off, approx 4-5 hr charging time from reading 1/4 charge on ezgo digital voltmeter. Why the large drop in voltage after 2 hours? Could these be bad batteries or is problem with charger kicking off to soon at 12 amps. Any info would be greatly appreciated |

Re: Powerwise charger
Check individual battery voltage numbers while on the charger near the end of the charge cycle. Post those numbers
