Sounds to me like you have one or more bad batteries. Check individual voltage on the batteries and post results.

36v charger? If so, Should be getting up to 44, 45 volts! and should turn off either at voltage or at backup timer. Sounds like you have a problem.

You need to post details of charger, batteries, etc. and you will get more help. Also go to stickies or cartsunlimited.com and read up on battery Break in.

Good luck.

Sounds to me like the charger is working good. Cut off voltage is between 44 and 46 +/- volts. New batteries may charge 20 hours on the first charge, if the charger doesn't time out at 16.... You need to let it finish to get the most complete charge, times will go down as the batteries reach peak condition.
I hope this helps
