Update. When I test voltage on batteries while chargrginf I am getting 41.1 volts and on the charger I am getting 42.1 v. I don’t know if this makes a difference. All the batteries test around 6.80 to 6.90 while charging. Charger amps is around 17A at 11 minutes of charging.

But they will die after only 10 or so minutes of use. That’s what made me start looking into why it shuts off after 30 minutes. Even after draining batteries down to 37 volts

Now is the time to do a load test on your batteries. Find a hill and measure how much your pack voltage drops going up. For six volt batteries it shouldn't drop more than 6v. It shouldn't drop below 30v. If if does check them individually to find the culprit. It has been my experience a bad battery will cause the problem you are describing.

Ok so the voltage shouldn’t drop below 30v even when the batteries aren’t fully charged? And I did a hydrometer test on three of the battery’s. And found one with a warning on the hydrometer saying needs attention. The lowest I’ve seen this battery is 5.9v. I’ll check the other batteries when I get a chance

Well we know we have one bad battery for sure.

This is during discharge when going up a hill.

I found a nice long hill and it did end up dropping below 30 volts. Went down to 28v. Came back and checked the batteries and they are all sitting around 6.25-6.30. And overall 37.8 v.

Batteries keep dying quickly. When I bring it back to garage to check things out. The pack measures around 38.0 v and each battery will check out around 6.25-6.4v
