Re: Do I need new batteries?
That will separate the bad from the might be okay. Quote:
Individual battery voltages must be defined to hundredths to be meaningful. (IE: 6.37V is a full charge while 6.31 is only 90%) All 6.3V says is that the State of Charge is >80% and <100%. All 6.1V says is that the State of Charge is >50% and >70%. However, since 6.35V and above would (or should) round up to 6.4V, I can deduce that either your batteries are bad, your charger is bad, your charging practice/procedure is bad or some combination thereof. Quote:
However, giving the benefit of doubt, the readings my have been taken while or immediately after the batteries were heavily loaded and the electrolyte was stratified. Just as batteries must be rested several hours after charging to get meaningful readings, they also have to rest several minutes after being discharged. I am fairly certain you have two bad batteries, but the rest might be okay and just not being fully charged for some reason or other. Need better info to determine. It would also be helpful to know what your cart is and which charger you are using. Last edited by JohnnieB; 01-20-2012 at 03:59 PM.. Reason: Added comments at beginning |

Re: Do I need new batteries?
Total Output is 41 Volts initially, drops to as low as 28 Volts when failure occurs.
Thank you |
