[Electric Boats] Re: Battery issue?

 

Hi Mike,

You might check for a bad lug/wire connection. I had a battery that like yours would not charge fully. It turned out being a soldered lug joint that failed. I felt the battery cables while charging and the bad battery's cable near the lug was much warmer than the others. Since I replaced the cable it has been fine.

Have you checked the power from the charger at the battery. Maybe it's the charger? You could switch battery order to make sure it is the battery.

Hope this helps. Mark
ps I won't mention the 6 hour sail (5 hours motoring) I had in my tee shirt on Saturday ;-)
