I have a Dual Pro Eagle Performance series 48volt / 18Amp charger for my Golf cart. I ran the charger with my CPE 2000i when my batteries were at 85% of capacity. I have not run a complete charge, but I go home today from offshore and I will try it and report back. This charger is a smart charger and starts at low output and ramps up as it charges. I will try to get as much detail as I can.
Charger info: Input- 115 VAC, 12.0 AMP (MAX) 60HTZ
Output- 48 Volts, 18 AMPS
My golf cart has 8 6volt batteries. I had the pack down to 60% which is 48.96 volts. I have a digital volt meter on my cart so I can tell state of charge. I ran the charger on my CPE 2000i on ECO Mode and it charged the pack with no troubles. I don't know if this helps anyone, but I figured I would post it just in case.
On a side note I was just wondering if anyone has heard that running batteries down past 50% can harm them. Here is a link that I found interesting regarding Batteries and charging them.
