Default Cart storage

When your cart (09 EZGO) is not going to be driven for 4-5 days, do I just leave my Power-wise QE plugged in while I'm gone?

When you plug in your charger to charge the cart, and the charge cycle is complete and the charger turns off. The charger will not start charging the batteries again until the plug that is plugged in to the cart is unpluged and plugged back in to the cart to start a new charge cycle, so leaving the charger plugged in to the cart will do nothing

4-5 days is nothing to be concerned about (4-5 weeks maybe), just charge it when you last park it before you leave.

After the cycle is complete and the charger turners off, I notice that the solid green light stays on. Is that normal? Once the charge is complete do I unplug it for 4 days or leave it plugged in?

Doesn't really matter if you leave it plugged in or not. I would leave it unplugged, but i only say that because its monsoon season here, so we have lightning..

I use a QE charger on my '07 TXT. In the summer during the week it is parked in a parking lot at a lake with about 40 other carts and there is no electricity. It sits at least 5 days between charges. I have fairly new black box Trojans and have left the cart as much as 6 weeks between visits. My batteries do no seem to self discharge near as much as the Trojan factory said which I think is 4% per week. I do turn the run/tow switch to tow. And do plug it in every night when at the lake.
