Batteries charging too fast?
I have what I think is a 1997 TXT 36 Volt. I recently purchased four Trojan 125 and two Trojan 105's that are claimed to be refurbished. I went ahead and installed the, cleaned up all the connections and set them to charge on my POWERWISE charger. I want to say about 45mins(or less) later the charger when completely off, as if it were done charging? So I took it around the block a few times for about 10-15mins until it began to get sluggish. I hooked it up again to the charger and yet the same thing happened, the charger went off after about 45mins(or less). Maybe the charger cycles? I don't know. Should I use a 12volt(car charger) to charge tow batteries at a time? Thank you, looking forward to some answers  |

Re: Batteries charging too fast?
Start with a battery evaluation. Assign each battery a # and post the voltage and Specific gravity of each cell in each battery.
This way we can eliminate a battery problem as the source of the trouble. |

All the cables from N To P have corrosion from the previous owner, I sanded down the connecting ends very well, maybe the corrosion is far inside the cable?  |

Re: Batteries charging too fast?
Yes corrosion spreads up the cable and causes resistance which creates heat and impedes amperage delivery ....
