Re: Brand new batteries charge question
Quote:
When battery manufacturers do non-destructive testing, they usually don't drop them lower than 1.75 VPC (Volts per Cell) and there are eighteen 2V cells in a 36V pack, so that is 31.5V. Irreversible plate damage starts at about 1.5 VPC, so you absolutely want to stay above 27.0V, except in dire emergencies like getting off the tracks while a freight train is heading towards you. The 35ish volts you saw is normal and fairly typical. The pack voltage drops fast under load, but recovers slowly. Full recovery takes over an hour, but most occurs in the first few minutes, so for serious battery testing I let the pack rest about half an hour and just a quick check to see when it is time to head for home, I seldom wait more the 5 minutes or so. The SoC estimate I get is low, but that is on the safe side. ------------ The pedal box and the in-line connector between the cable connecting the cable from the pedal box to the cart's wiring harness are very susceptible to moisture and will cause the symptoms you describe. You should also avoid getting the controller wet. |
