Re: New batterys
oh , ok ... over 7 right after charge .. ok it will settle over 12hrs .. the low ones are not good at that voltage ...
see if you can charge the low ones with a 6v or 2 @12v to get them up to at least 6v each then put entire pack on charge should take a few hours follow scottyB's battery break in ---> http://www.cartsunlimited.net/Batter...n_Methods.html BTW.. new batteries need to be charged before first ride .. |

Re: New batterys
Also, see if you can find the date codes on the batteries. You may have 3 older batteries that have been sitting for a long time (not good) and have a case of excessive sulfation. - RAY

Re: New batterys
I would take the 3 low ones back and bring your meter with you. Take the 3 that read the highest from his stock
