Re: Proper break in for new batteries
I personally wouldn't take anything less than 8.35v.

https://batteryuniversity.com/learn/...tate_of_charge Some makes of lead acid batteries may use a higher concentration of acid in them, hence the higher density. The BU article indicates higher density, more energy from the battery, but shorter life due to higher corrosion. |

Re: Proper break in for new batteries
i have a question about new battery break in also, do we have to run the pack down to 25% before recharge? would 5-10% be enough? i recently bought a new onward and am doing the break in process at home, basically when my kid comes home from school i have him pull the cart out and run around the acreage for an hour or so as he does chores. i dont want to be chasing my wife around the rv park with a DMM so i am wanting to do the break in at home.
so what im asking LOL is "under-dishcharging" and then charging overnight ok? or am i wasting time and accomplishing nothing ? thanks Chris. |

Re: Proper break in for new batteries
I asked the same question a few years ago as I just couldn’t get them down much on a daily basis.......was told if it’s not running, it needs to be on the charger......

Re: Proper break in for new batteries
Don't worry about how "little" it was used. Plug it in and let it do its thing.
