Charge confirmation indicators

[StanMI]

Stock 2020 Tempo cart and factory eric charger. Origional batteries (I think).

When I plug the cart in, it takes about 15 seconds to get the 3 flashing lights and buzzer.

Is this a normal length of time??? Seems like it should be quicker.

It only took 3 seconds yesterday...........
Could it have anything to do with the state of charge being high or low ?????

[StanMI]

No ideas...........?????

In my experience, the lower the state if charge in the batteries, the quicker the confirmation beeps and flashes occur, so yes.

So safe to assume, 3 second interval = batteries were low, 15 second interval = batteries in a much higher soc ??

Find attached a voltage vs. state of charge chart for your reference.

Test your stabilized battery pack voltage before charging and see if the time to start charging correlates to the state of charge.
