Great informational video. Just purchased the 2x Falcon kit for my 2001 GEM E825. Adding new lithium charger, what did you do with the interlock and temp sensor wires the were on existing charger? Also, any issues using existing 72v to 12v converter?

it's not charging with 10 amps. the panel may OUTPUT 10 amps under ideal conditions, but at a lower voltage. The charge controller is BOOSTING the lower voltage up so the current will go DOWN. It might be charging with an amp or 2, so maybe 100W. You see to get 10 amps of charge, you would need a 500-600 watt solar array. Simple math really, google Ohms Law.

Very nice video. I am about to convert my EZGO Mpt1000 to Lithium and was looking for a site that had the ability to explain the whole install which this one did. I bought a 48 Volt charger on Amazon for about a hundred dollars and will use that instead of Dakotas charger trying to minimize expense. Thank you for posting this.

Hey bud I have a question, if you put the cart in jacks can you run a cart without batteries? The reason why I am asking is to test the golf cart before you spend money getting batteries and find out that was not the problem I am a tech myself not for this gem carts but I do understand a couple things, so if a plug 72 volts wire, that's should make this cart go, but I asking you since you are a tech for .

Biggest POS batteries made today. Bought a d34m marine battery. Lasted 3 years. Warranty ended at 2. $400 wasted. Charged as per instructions on Optima site. 10amps for about 6 hours (on an automatic agm charger). But wait…bought a red and yellow top for a different application. Yellow top(same as blue top with different terminals) died in under 2 years. Parts store did replace for free. So I did hear that Optima got bought out and cheapened up their product which is now made in Mexico and I now believe it. Will never buy one again.

@DeepcyclebatterystoreSanDiego2 ай бұрын
-04 code this means the controller believe that the brake is on and has locked out the main relay. This occurs to prevent the GEM from being driven with the brake on. There is a small switch mounted to the park brake handle that reads whether or not the brake is on.
Hi, I have a 2000 GEM car E 2 seater. Is the battery pack you purchased a 48 volt or 72 volt pack? Im changing batteries out now as the acid batteries are a pain & so heavy. Would it go on a 48 or does it need the 72 volt? Much appreciated.

That's a 12V load tester bud; and since golf cart batteries are not cold cranking AMPs like auto or marine batteries, the test is bogus. Look at needle in video, it is in the red zone (replace) to begin with. This test can actually damage deep cycle golf cart batteries

Great video Jeff, and excellent recommendations. I just watched a Odyssey AGM battery video on properly charging their batteries and it stated then need to be charged at 14.0 - 14.7 volts to properly charge them. I am not sure if all AGM batteries have this requirement but they are 12.9 volt batteries, and regular lead acid batteries are 12.6 volts, and should be charged at least a 1 volt higher voltage.
