Woohoo! First complete charge with the "new" Delta-Q 48v charger only took
5.5 hours - and that was for 80-90% DOD (guessing). I know, I know - I'm a bad boy to draw it down that low.
To compare, the 24v 10A Vulcan took approximately
16 hrs to replace the same amount of energy.
Too early to
definitively say whether it's more efficient than the old charger, but the energy usage of this drive/charge cycle put it at 4th best out of 13 recorded cycles:

This is the first time since the end of Feb that I've been able to record a cycle because the old Vulcan 24/10 hasn't shut off automatically, making it impossible to determine accurate energy usage for distance travelled (sort of like the gas pump not clicking off and gas pumping out on the pavement).
