The guage is working fine, it's just not 'calibrated' to what I think 'calibrated' should be. (Like a car gas tank 1/2 is half and E is E).
Your pic above shows a full 36V battery charge...so if you see that it's getting near 35 or so, you are getting low, right? Is that how you tell you're getting low?
Thanks for your patience and reply.

That's correct. When you get to 50%,according to the chart, it's time to charge. Draining much lower than that decreases the life of your batteries.
