Battery Charging
I have a 48v Club car in which the batteries are getting a bit knackered (tired.)
I have some chemicals remaining from my son-in-law's foray into battery reconditioning. I also have a "special" charger station, which is 6ea 12v charging units. This is supposed to be a de-sulfating charger meant to work in conjunction with the chemicals. But of course, the charger stations are 12v, the batteries are 8v........... Question is, can I wire the clips of 2 charger stations together in series and charge 3 8v batteries connected in series?? Inquiring minds NEED to know........... |

Re: Battery Charging
The chargers can not be put and series and work as they also have sense circuits that will get very confused if you do this.

Re: Battery Charging
Depends on your charger, but usually a 12v charger will work with an 8v battery.
The desulfator chargers may be too smart for that though. |

Re: Battery Charging
Yeah, A manufacturer of a charger that looks to be the same said it wasn't a good idea....
If I could tap into the thru-the-wall connector between cells of a battery, I could put in a post between cells 2 and 3 and I would have 12v when connected in series to another battery. That would keep everything happy... But, I am not familiar with the construction of the Die Hard or Dura Cell batteries. (Can't remember which...) |
