I just got a 36V golf cart and am in process of dialing in a rectifier for charging.
Can someone tell me what the battery voltage should be when fully charged? All 6 batterys seem to be in good shape all passing a load test with my 100A tester. All are lead acid Trojans(105). Im looking for total battery voltage and what the float voltage should be. I havent yet charged them to the point of 0 amps charger output as the voltage seems too high and dont want to fry the batteries. So far heres what I get; Shutting the charger off @5 amps I get 38.8 battery volts The charger is putting out 42.7 volts at this 5 amp output. what determines the point that I reach.5C? Ive seen this on another charger that switches from charging mode to float voltage at this point. |

45 volts max, 42.7 is good in my opinion, I was schooled that it is 15 volts max per 12 volt battery charging, when the charger is stoped the batteries should be around 14 volts.
