Thread: Guess i get to take out ALL my batteries

Ok, what did ya fink out today??

Fink? Hehe. Found out they have to be fully charged before they cam check the amos. Lol

WE told you that last yer .....dang, you don't ever listen. Charge them up.....take a hydrometer reading of each cell.....if it flunks that then they are toast, if it passes that then test with a load tester.....if it fails that its toast. And again.....To get your moneys worth and to get good performance and longivity out of your TM batterys....They should all be the same age, brand , size, and type. In the end mixing sizes and ages, etc. will cost you more money in the long run....your weakest battery in the system will pull the others down. You will not get the run time that you should achieve nor will the batterys last as long as they should. I know thats not what you want to hear, but thats the way it is.

LOL, those 2 are fine. Picked them up at lunch. Gonna check all the fuses from the charger to the batteries, reconnect everything and give it a test this weekend. Did have some rust on 1 cable connection. I just hate to have to take that back battery out. It's in a tiny cubbiehole, siting on a treated wood frame and screwed into the framework on the boat. Takes bout 46 min to an hour to take out

If its that bad then its just possible......well very possible, lol...... that you have not been checking the water. You do use distilled water don't you?
