I would like to charge my batteries while I wait on my new smart charger.

Re: can I do a temp. fix
Do you have 8 x 6v? If so you can use a 12v charger to charge 2 at a time. Or you could bypass the obc and use your current charger.

Re: can I do a temp. fix
Can't he just jump the charger relay and watch over the pack voltage until it reaches a critical point?

Re: can I do a temp. fix
As long as you are willing to monitor volts while charging, you can do THIS inside your charger. But unplug at about 60 volts (wall first / cart second) so you don't cook your batteries. The charger won't stop charging when you jump those relay wires together. (oops - Scotty just mentioned this before me)

Re: can I do a temp. fix
I have a digital meter on the cart can I use that to see voltage?

Re: can I do a temp. fix
My suggestion is to go ahead and start modifying your cart for the new charger. Start by connecting the red and black wires from the charging receptacle to the batteries. Then jumper the two interlock wires together. Now you will be ready for your new charger.
Jump the charger relay and you should be ready to charge until your new charger arrives. If the old charger is capable. |

This will suffice for a week or two until the new charger arrives. Then you can just plug it in as the wiring will already be prepared for it.... |
