53V normal after charging?
2003 Club Car DS IQ
After charging I checked the voltage on my batteries and it was reading 53.4. The state of charge charts I see only go up to 51 I think. Is this bad? Is it overcharging? Everything seems to run fine otherwise and I'm using the factory charger. Thanks in advance. |

That’s normal immediately after unplugging it. Let it sit for 12 hours and it will go down slightly.

Good to know. Yep, I literally pulled it off right after charging...

My new battery pack settles down to 51.8 volts at 12 hours after charging.

Re: 53V normal after charging?
I should probably create a new thread, but is anyone using a surge protector with their charger? Will any old surge protector or is there a specific one I need?
Would something basic like this work... Supposedly 2100 joules https://www.walmart.com/ip/RCA-6-OUTLET-SURGE/21556249 |

Not on the old transformer chargers. They're tough as a brick and most parts are replaceable if you happen to have a random surge or even a lightning strike. With the new electronic chargers like the ERIC or some of the aftermarket programmable ones, might be a good idea since almost nothing in those is serviceable. |

Haha, yeah i'd love to pick one up. I'll definitely get with you when I get mine sold. Although now I'm conflicted because it's running really good since the new MCOR
