As many times I've had those batteries out I never noticed they weren't wired at the batteries for 24 volt...makes this charging setup much easier. A small maintaining charger would work perfectly.

Interesting!! So I assume each port goes to one battery with a 12 volt charger? Could a 24 volt charger be used so only one plug is needed or wired I wonder. I see how that will work as it wouldn't be any different for the acutemp with the batteries hooked up and charged and being charged at...
So I looked at mine today after sitting the last few weeks not plugged in and the batteries show 92% charge. It is inside the house so it isn't getting really hot if that matters or not.
I'm not sure how long mine go without being plugged in but I do have to take them out to charge them back up again. I haven't tested them this summer yet though how long they go before their dead again. I would like to do a switch that unhooks them from the unit when I'm not using it though...
Having that lid on shocks is really nice for sure! I use mine all summer. The batteries do die after about a month if it's not being used. I leave it plugged in a bunch. My next thing I need to figure out is some kind of netting inside or something keeping stuff from bouncing all over the...
That's great information that I didn't know...mines been sitting for a bit but plan to use it a bunch this summer...I replaced the batteries with the ones it came with just to not throw off it's system so adding a panel to charge them is the next step for sure.

I didn't get a controller yet...still trying to figure out which to use...thinking of mounting it in the case with the wires through a grommet sealed up...I got a renogy 24 volt 6 amp that fits right on the top...I'll cut some aluminum angle to mount it with...I may do speed clamps so I can take...
Wow that's some good stuff!! You know what struts you used? I can find the other stuff pretty easy...like the bottom idea too. I just put new batteries in it the other day...runs great!

That makes sense to use an outside setup, probably way easier to setup without trying to change the system inside. You know if you can hook up a solar panel to it without a controller? I think it would hook up like a 12 volt charger to the internal batteries...I would hate to smoke it....says...
Anyone hook a solar panel to one of these yet? I've read this entire thread and don't see that yet. I haven't found another thread about these on here so I thought I'd ask here...can start new if need be. I see it can use a 28 volt 10 amp max setup...with tech as fast as it's moved since the...
