Re: Whats the deal with the "new" type of charger?
I understand there will be a "spilt' beer" umbrella accessory available to address this.
Yeah....what is with the change in the charger......I'm slow, took me awhile to figure out there was an english translation to that manual that some one posted the link to. |

Re: Whats the deal with the "new" type of charger?
Does anyone know this charger, or if it is inferior to the Delta Q?

The reliability has yet to be proven and there have been some complaints posted regarding tech support but there is little information out there yet to really compare these. I only see from the photo that it has CE certification which is a European equivalent to UL. In order for it to comply in the US, I think UL is still required. I'm not sure of this as it has been years since I have been involved with UL certifications; maybe someone who is more current can help out here. |

Re: Whats the deal with the "new" type of charger?
Sorry to say Yellow, that is incorrect, they are a retailer that operates out of a small shop down by the tracks in my city about 4 blocks from my old office.
The chargers are manufactured by Sino-US Hangzhou Tiecheng Information Technology Co., Ltd. in China, this is their website: http://www.hztiecheng.com/english/Product/T8/29.html |

Re: Whats the deal with the "new" type of charger?
Doug....do these things normally come programed with the proper charging curve to match the installed batteries or anybody's guess?

Re: Whats the deal with the "new" type of charger?
I don't know about the programming on these. I would think that they would be done for you but the company installing them is really not in that business, hopefully they were ordered with the correct parameters.
I live in a golf cart community, this from one of my local sites I was at regarding these chargers on GEM cars: http://golfcarportal.com/education/buying_gem.php Quote:

Re: Whats the deal with the "new" type of charger?
Looks like the curve is selectable (1-10) by the end user......what's the criteria for selecting the right one?

Re: Whats the deal with the "new" type of charger?
Wish I could tell you but I don't know the answer. I currently have an old style ferro-resonant charger but will be looking into one of these new fangled devices when I do do my voltage/speed/torque upgrade later this year.
Maybe to set your mind at ease, an email to DE to enquire as to what they ordered and what parameters they gave or what the curve settings should be. That information would be a handy post for anyone who has this charger and needs to confirm the settings. |

Re: Whats the deal with the "new" type of charger?
I remember when the JOYNER vehicles first came out. The sales people were on me like prom date. I had plenty of sales info, yet not vehicles. Nice stereos, ITP wheels, Carlisle tires, etc. First units showed up with Chinese copies of each item I considered as a plus - you know, the stuff in the brochure
Eventually, I sent the vehicles back and wiped my hands from import products - sounds like there may have been some of the same things happening here? |
