36 volt charger on eBay

70oldsracer · 10-02-2018, 11:29 AM

Is the 36 volt charger they’re selling on eBay for like $60 any good? I know, if it’s too good be true, it usually isn’t. Just figured I’d ask.

It's going to be really low amp output. Low amp output does not meet the battery manufacturer specs for how they're supposed to be charged. And the super cheap China electronics never last long. I say you would be throwing away money.

Not good at all. 5 amps. I tried one once years ago. Once.

Thanks, I kinda figured that.

The manufactures call for charger amperage equal to 10% of the battery. Most 6v batteries are 200 amp hours, so 20 amps is what you are looking for.
