Re: Sleep on zeva
That's still a significant draw for 2 weeks.
Do you have a main disconnect to isolate the pack from any parasitic draws? (i.e. voltage reducer or charger) I've gone 6-8 weeks with only a .2V-.3V drop. And yes, the sleep switch is a must have IMO. |

Re: Sleep on zeva

Re: Sleep on zeva
Maybe consider adding an Anderson SB175 disconnect from the main pack leads to your accessories.
I disconnect mine when I know I won't be using the cart for a while and engage the sleep function. Works like a charm |

Re: Sleep on zeva
I usually disconnect the pack completely for long term storage. Prob do it this weekend as i wont use the cart for a month.

Re: Sleep on zeva
Yes!
I disconnect mine anytime I won't be using the cart for a period and it's worked like a charm. Although I have wondered about looking into something more like a main breaker or switch to replaced the Anderson connect just for ease of use. I feel connecting/ disconnecting might wear the contacts of the SB175 out prematurely. I haven't looked yet though. |
