regular outlet<\/a>. Think about it. If you could, we all would.)<\/p>\n\n\n\nHow long does it take to recharge a dead golf cart battery?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Typical values range from your source through the battery cables to the cart and can take between 8 and 12 hours. Whatever charger you use, ensure the current and lights are consistent, showing that the cart is indeed charged. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most charges will have a green light to indicate that charging is complete. Prolonged use of a charger that does not have a trickle or automatic shut-off can cause damage to the cells. So always be in a position where you can spot-check it until you are comfortable that it can charge reliably. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can shorten this time by using a fast charger, which, unlike other folks, isn’t something I would ever need to do as I never let my golf cart go dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In fact, quite the opposite\u2013before I go on vacation or as winter heaves into view, I bring up my cart to a full charge and store it away until spring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Charging a golf cart involves reading the manufacturer’s instructions carefully (and I mean really<\/em> read it, really carefully).<\/p>\n\n\n\nFollow the manufacturer’s instructions in the letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This includes maintaining distilled water at the correct levels and using a recommended charger. Do not skimp on charging time, but also do not overcharge it. Use a timer if required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you do this well enough, you can really extend the life of your batteries within your golf cart and use it for years to come. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
