I will get the same reading continually during a limited time span when using the same meter.

As the volts drop with use, half a volt one way or the other, can make the difference between being OK or going below 50%. Yeah, being off a whole volt in unknown direct, surely would matter.

50% is not a hard set line. It is a target. If I'm on the 16 th hole when I get to 50% I'm going to finish my round of golf. I would not start a round if I was getting down close to that. Just saying.

Most batteries (from what I read) at full charge is 2.12 volts/cell...multiple by number of cells to get your total...48 volt comes out to 50.88...I wouldn’t be too concerned...also measure your specific gravity

Have to remember also at charging I’ve seen as high as 65 volts going into batteries, it might take a little time for them to fully level out....IMO

My DPI charger floats my US Batts at 52.4 volts, even days off the Charger and using the cart for a few minutes around the house they typically hold at around 51+. Really have to put them to work to get them down to 70-80% SOC

"Full charge" Voltage depends on the battery and the manufacturer. This will vary slightly.
Battery manufacturers usually have a data sheet that specifies what their batteries voltage will be at 100% SOC. This info will not be on the battery.
