Default Battery Meter Recommendations

Hello, I’m looking for recommendations for a good battery meter so I can easily tell when to charge. What’s everyone got?

I use a Lester summit II charger. It gives me an accurate reading of power and it's the only thing I've found to be truly accurate.

I’m looking for a battery meter to install on the cart to see battery levels. Not a charger. But thank you for letting me know about the charger. Looks like that model has Bluetooth to monitor with a phone. I like that feature if it works good.

Always put your cart on charge after using, 5 minutes or 5 hours...batteries love to be at full charge. Don't wait until battery level is low.

Thanks for the tip. This is my first electric cart so I was afraid that plugging the charger up after every use would weaken the battery life. I need to research to see if the charger I have stops charging and goes into a maintain mode after a full charge.
