RXV Battery Meter

[usgicollector]

There is no comparison between E-Z-GO RXV fuel gauge and this Digital Analog Multi-Function meter. But it does have a few draw backs. The hour meter can’t be reset and the read out is hard to see in the direct sunlight just like all digital read out meters. This meter really shines after dark makes you think you’re in a car. I would recommend this meter to anyone with an RXV.

My issue with the meter is that it has never displayed 100% SOC even those the voltage sensed post charge is clearly 100% (51.6V). So, there has to be some slop in the % readings. Other than that, it really is a nice meter and lets you keep track of your under load voltages as well as SOC. I'm going to ask to exchange and see if the discrepancy is in the meter or the sensing voltage off the controller. Clearly it is getting 5V plus, reading over 51V but displaying less that 100% SOC.

If anyone is interested, I can get you this exact meter fro 60.00 each,
with free shipping. pm me if interested.

They are pretty cool!!

I got mine installed and it is hard to read with sunlight on it and it says 95% when I am full charged

Ask to send it back if it isn't right. Sunlight will hurt any digital readout so that would be expected.

I have a question on the EZGO RXV Charge Meter Plug And Play Multifunction. I installed it in my 2012 EZGO RXV 48V cart and I am only showing an 88% Charge. I have 6- 8volt batteries and they are each showing over 8V. When I check all the batteries tied together I am showing 50.6 and 50.6 on the Digital Guage. My factory "gas gauge" type meter showed a full charge. Any ideas or suggestions?

Get back with the seller and tell them what it is doing. See what they tell you and let us know.

Right now they said it could be my charger. Cheap charger from EZGO? but I just had my charger rebuilt and also used my buddies charger to charge them. I don't think it's the charger but i will see what else they may think the problem may be.
I charged each individual battery with a trickle charger. Show all the batteries in the circuit at 50.6 on my handheld volt meter, and the multimeter also displays 50.6. but only at 87%. the electric "gas gauge" meter i replaced showed full when I took it out.

That is correct IF you are using one of those light weight " toaster" chargers.

Those crappy chargers only charge batteries to 88 %!!
i have 18 RXV customers that i have installed this meter in their cart, and at the same time sold them a DPI charger. The DPI charger has raised that original 88 % number, up to 100% in some cases.

why do each of my batteries show over 8v and the series shows 50.6v, if the charger was not fully charging them, shouldn’t I have lower volts?
