I pulled 6 of the batteries out of the car today.
I think part of the issue MAY be the series/parallel thing. I looked through the charger instruction manual today and it says that it's for battery packs of 80 to 120 AH.
Running two sets of 100AH batts in parallel makes it a 72V 200AH pack.
Possibly, the charger has an issue with charging the big pack if it can sense the "speed" it charges at?
Oh well, at least by going to just 6 batteries, it eliminates one more thing to make troubleshooting easier.
Of course without those extra 6 batteries, the truck springs jack the back of the car an extra couple inches!
I will be showing the car AND the motorcycle at ROCK THE EARTH in Fort Atkinson, WI tomorrow.
