with my cen tech digital multimeter just now i went out and tested one batt with the meter and it read 6.45 and each batt read about the same... should i have got a 36 v reading by just testing one batt???
Connect the meter at each end of the stack.
Yes charge daily regardless of use. Lead-acid has no memory effect. At less than full charge they do sulfate so best to keep them tip top 100% charged when possible.
That did it. found the main pos. and the main neg battery and getting 38.3 volts. now i know where to connect the meter... thanks...
only use the thing around the property a few times a week. probably less than a mile the days I use it. guess will charge it 2 times a week to keep them up. thanks again for all the help. as usual I came to the right spot for the answers....
