Re: Best and most affordable charger for lithium leaf 14s pack
Hi Bronsonj,
That power supply does indeed have the CC function. For the information of others, if the supply doesn’t have a Constant Current function it will either shut itself down, blow a fuse, or destroy itself when you first connect a battery pack as it tries to draw greater than its rated maximum current. A Constant Current supply will simply limit the current to its maximum and drop the charge voltage accordingly. The charge voltage will slowly increase as the battery voltage increases and the current demand decreases. Cheers Pat. |

Re: Best and most affordable charger for lithium leaf 14s pack
And just like that, my charger died! I opened it up and it looks like there was some water intrusion at some point. Nothing looks burnt and nothing smells bad and the fuse is good, but no power out...
So now I'm looking for a charger too! |

Re: Best and most affordable charger for lithium leaf 14s pack
Thanks Ping Eye, I just ordered one. How do you adjust the V down? Is there just one potentiometer or is there more to it?

Re: Best and most affordable charger for lithium leaf 14s pack
I'm quite happy with mine. It's worked when I had the 7 module pack and again, just fine when I expanded to a 14 module pack.

Re: Best and most affordable charger for lithium leaf 14s pack
Boys I am not going to lie. Wiring this cart up has beat my a$$. I got the sw202 to click when i change from forward and reverse but the curtis FP-6 foot pedal killed me. I got it used from a buddy of mine and come to find out the gear was cracked on the inside so it showed 60% throttle all the time. Yep that made the cart darn near run through the back of my house. Lucky there was a bench in the way (RIP bench). So i ordered a new FP-6 pedal and it should be here thursday. I know i wired the key switch wrong because when i turn on the key switch the contactor solenoid clicks. So pretty much the curtis fp-6 and key switch has killed me. Also no clue where my charger is. Somewhere between Florida and China i guess

Re: Best and most affordable charger for lithium leaf 14s pack
Well i took it on its maiden voyage today. It was pretty snappy for a golf cart i must say. I was happy just from my 10 min ride. Still have to clean up some wires and that should be it. So question to you guys. When i turn the key switch on should the contactor solenoid click? I thought it was only supposed to do that when you gave it gas pedal.
