How large of a voltage drop are yall seeing in your RXVs?
 
Current floating voltage is 50.2 so the pack needs to be recharged, but im always curious on how the system works dynamically. So i used my DMM to monitor pack voltage whilst flooring the gas suddenly at a stand still. To my amazement, the pack voltage dropped to 43.6v which coincided with the carts maximal acceleration (which is still pretty impressive.)

As the motor achieves rotor lock (25-26 mph) the voltage comes up to about 48.2v.

Does anyone else monitor voltage in real time?

Yes. My cart has a digital meter installed. Voltage can drop as low as 42v under max accel or climbing a hill. Have not seen lower than 42 under any circumstances so far. Batteries and meter were 2 years old in April. Trojan 875's. 232 cycles on them. Cart has 20" tires and is heavy with rear seat, long canopy, windshield etc. I've seen high 50's under braking but normal is 52-53. (2012 Curtis RXV)
