Re: EZ-GO Golf Cart Battery Died in About an Hour
Eek - sorry - I have a 42V cart (7, 6V batteries) so 42V at rest is a little under 50% SOC.
I don't seem to be able to edit the original post.. ..a |

Re: EZ-GO Golf Cart Battery Died in About an Hour

Also, the voltage you see when you first stop your cart is lower than it will climb to after resting for several minutes. I measured the voltage climb rate on a set of six T-105 batteries and found much of the voltage climb occurred in the first 5 minutes, most occurred in the first 15 minutes and nearly all occurred in the first half hour. Here is what I found. 2008 TXT PDS with six 3 year old T-105's for 36V Driven 10.2 Miles in Freedom Mode Stop =37.05V - 68% SoC 5 Min = 37.37V - 77% SoC 10 Min = 37.43V - 78.5% SoC 15 Min = 37.49V - 80% SoC 20 Min = 37.51V - 81% SoC 30 Min = 37.53V - 81.5% SoC 60 Min = 37.57V - 82% SoC As you see the apparent SoC changed by 14% over an elapsed time of 60 minutes. While it did continue to climb after that, I stopped taking measurements after an hour had passed. When I do battery studies (Run-time - Range - AH per mile and the like), I allow the batteries to rest at least 30 minutes before taking the "After" reading. When I just want to know when it is time to head back to the barn, I just use what my dash mounted DVM reads a few moments after my cart stops. That automatically puts me on the safer side. |
