Charging question
I've got a new to me 2012 Precedent. Yesterday I put the charger on it and left it. I came back this morning and the charger was off as I had expected and the pack voltage measured 50.6v. I topped off the water and then took it for about a 3 mile ride on rolling terrain (streets). I checked the pack again and had 50.1v.
Now here is the odd thing to me, when I plugged up the charger it kicked and the meter pegged out at something over 15 amps. Rather than leave it I fooled around working on other things and after about 5 min the charger cycled off and back on. It did that a second time about 5 min later. It's been on now for about 20 min with no other interruptions. Is that normal charger behavior? Dennis |

Re: Charging question
Dennis,
That is normal behavior. The abc is talking to the batteries and deciding how much charge they need. After adding water, they might charge for another 5 - 7 hours. Aflyer |
