The charge state of your batteries when installing the meter is irrelevent. Just hook up the + and - terminals from the meter to the 36 volt battery output + & - and when you hook up the C terminal either to the cart on/off switch or to the 36 Volt output + terminal the meter will reflect the current charge state.

It doesn't matter what level your battery is at when you install it, it will indicate the battery level at that point. While it's charging, it shows fully charged. This is a nice unit , and works very well with 36v systems.

Dude just charge it until the meter reads full it will not hurt your batteries. Joe

I think it might be that your battery is dead, LiIon batteries are highly sensitive to overcharge, meaning that they are damaged when you keep your charger connected after it has reached 100% charge. Get a new battery and try to avoid extreme charge states (full discharge and overcharge) are bad for your battery, don´t let it fall under 20% and don´t chrage it over 95%!! Hope this is helpful

My new battery was already charged and I used it right away. Then when I loose a bar I charge it about 20 min. when the battery light stops flashing which indicates the battery is fully charged.

The batteries also probably need to be charged regardless of how full a charger says they are. 1st time thing.

Um..... It should never be on unless charging. You did not charge it when you first got it did you? It comes charged. From then on it only takes a two hour charge. If overcharged and battery ruined the light will stay on.

usually i plug it in and the green light comes up and i can see the battery symbols for the respective slots i put the battery in flash with an indication. if the batteries show up already full, the batteries might either be fully charged or no good.

Check if hissing plugged in without batteries installed , if it does you know its not the batteries hissing. If only hear when charging ,wearing safety glasses, check for a over heated or leaking battery.Use only batteries charger is designed to charge.if all checks out should be OK. I never leave home while charging and have my chargers on a boot tray in work area and check during charging period.

Your charger should tell you when it is fully charged, mind have yellow light when it needs to be charged and a green light when it is fully charged

To charge, power should be off. Blinking lights indicate charging in progress.

definitely NOT normal. Your charger should charge the battery and you'll see a blue light.

When I plug mine in the red light goes on. If it's been plugged in for days it goes off. I believe this indicates a full charge. The maintainer must have some sort of circuitry measuring voltage or current from the battery so as not to overcharge.

Hi, you it charge first before you use it. if it is full of charge, check the user manual. my is working ok.

When you plug in the battery the little green light will come on to let you know it's charging. When that light has turned off then the battery is fully charged and you can put a new one in.

Yes, make sure to follow the instructions on charging the battery or it will need to be replaced. �

The light should stay on until the speaker is fully charged if it is working after u charge it, it's probably fine

sounds like the battery is going or needs a full 24 hr charge - check the initial instructions to see if you missed a step
