2016 RXV in need of charge meter and a little more pep
Hello,
I recently purchased a 2016 RXV and it came without a charge meter, any suggestions on which meters are the most accurate? Since it doesn't have one, I'm not bound by trying to find one to fit in a round or rectangle hole. I have US Batteries, so not sure if there are specific meters for them as I have seen specific meters for Trojans (I still have a lot to learn) The cart runs about 21mph (according to my wifes Apple Watch), so I would like to have Bob work his magic if possible. Depending on the turnaround time, this might be something I do this winter. Does anyone know if a switch can be added to have 2 max speeds, one limited to roughly 20mph (neighborhood) and one that isn't restricted? Great forums, glad to be a member and look forward to being able to contribute some day! |

There are is a plug behind the panel where the key switch is that i plugged mine straight into which is a digital one but looked a couple weeks ago and can not find the same one anymore but there is one that is similar but looks like a gas gauge that would work.

Re: 2016 RXV in need of charge meter and a little more pep
When using a voltmeter on a 48 volt system, what are your readings at 100% charged, 50% charged, etc? I am used to seeing the 0% - 100% gauges, but I am struggling to find a digital gauge that can be seen in sunlight and is accurate.
I need something easy to understand so my wife knows when it's time to be plugged in. |

State of Charge chart. I use the simple rule: If it's a 36V cart, never below 36V. If it's a 48V cart then never below 48V.
