delta quiq 4818 not charging

[devybob]

I ordered a lester summit 2 that will be in next week. I ordered a 48volt but they said I could program it for 42 volts as the 42volt model is not available.My question is will leaving my batteries at 80% for a week harmful to the new batteries.

Lester Summit II's are junk. Chinesium junk, non-repairable and with stupid gimmicks like bluetooth. A charger has to do one job, and that's charge batteries. NOT be smart or talk to a stupid smartphone.

It's just an ERIC in disguise. We've got a pile of dead ones already next to QE mountain. The QUIQ is just a yellow/black QE in my view. They fail just as often and are just as stupid a design.

IF your cart is 36V just get a DPI or even the old PowerWise chargers. those were tanks. I hope we get the sense one day to realize how much e-waste these crappy smart/tiny little chargers we see lately are generating before it's too late. There was nothing wrong with the ferro-resonant charger design. It did the job and lasted upwards of 30 plus years. These tiny little lightweight Chinesium versions are just trash. You're lucky to get a year or two out of them, then trash it and buy another, and another, and another, forever. If they tried something like this in the 1960s they'd be out of business within a month. Back then, people knew when companies screwed them over.
