Re: 36v cart range
Can you charge the pack as soon as you are done riding or do you need to wait?

Re: 36v cart range
If you're gonna be parked 10 minutes or more (no real exact number) charge them.
During Summers, when I spent all day driving, any time I parked at my house or a neighbor's house, it was on charge. |

---------- Along this same line, there is a process known as opportunity charging. Basically charging batteries whenever possible even when the cart will be used again before the batteries have enough time to be fully charged. |

Re: 36v cart range
Can you do a partial charge? As in put them on charge for say a 1/2 hour (not reaching full charge) and then head out again?

Re: 36v cart range
Yep. The higher you can keep your SOC, the longer they will last, not only that day, but total life span.

Re: 36v cart range
Can you use a Lester automatic charger on these carts without having to change anything?
Can you upgrade a 36v charger to a 42v charger? |

Re: 36v cart range
Can you downgrade a 48v? By changing the board?

Re: 36v cart range
If the board is a SCR type board, like DPI chargers, yes it's possible (if you can get the manufacturer to cooperate). Any charger that supports more than one battery mode could theoretically be changed. Also 48v models of the Delta-Q QuiQ can be set to 42v with a Algo (software) change. Older chargers like Lester ferro-resonant chargers can't be changed without some serious mods that no one here wants to do (cutting some of the transformer windings out, which has many drawbacks like reducing amp output, defeating it's UL rating, and possibly destroying the whole thing in the process).
