Re: Battery Break in Question
Johnnie, after twelve hours off the charger, pack voltage was 51.2. Plugged the charger back in and an hour and half later, floating at 52.7.

Re: Battery Break in Question
The On-Charge voltage is reaching 63V, the At-Rest voltage is at 100% SoC and the Float is above the At-Rest voltage and below the gassing voltage, so I guess I was being overly paranoid.

Re: Battery Break in Question
Johnnie, I appreciate all of your input and guidance. I am anal retentive by nature and started getting worried that my new pack was not going to live up to its full potential. I feel better knowing that all is well - thanks again.

My calculations indicate the 48V float charge voltage in Mode-2 will be about 52.5V, but both my 36V in Mode-2 and my 42V in Mode-3 run about 0.2V higher than my calculations. The important this is that the float voltage is a bit above the 100% SoC At-Rest voltage (50.93V for Trojan) and well below the gassing voltage (57.36V). The easy way to find out what Mode your DPI charger is in, is unplug it from the AC outlet and then watch the front-panel as you plug it back in. The number of times all five LEDs flash indicates what mode it is in. |

Re: Battery Break in Question
Sorry if I aided and abetted the pucker factor.

Re: Battery Break in Question
In their latest manual, DPI has this ambiguous statement: Mode ‘4’ or Orange: Use for Crown / AGM Batteries
I'm not sure if that means use Mode-4 for Crown batteries or AGM batteries, or if it means AGM batteries made by Crown. --------- Just curious, what is the100% SoC AT-Rest voltage on your Crown batteries? The same as Trojan? It is a bit higher than Trojan on my Exide batteries, but not as high as US Battery. |

Re: Battery Break in Question
Johnnie - confirming LED test on DPI charger. All LED flashed once, I pulled the plate on the front of the charger to confirm I set the jumpers correctly and they are set to mode 1, jumpers in the top two locations and bottom two empty.
