contrary to popular belief,,,,golf cart batteries are not designed to be ran dead before charging. they should be discharged no more than to 80% of full charge.
Could have recovered the two batteries using a "PulseTech" Extreme Desulphator/Charger. Just takes some time and patience. I have one one every battery I own. Engine driven welders, vehicles etc.
So, you didn't try to recover those batteries that were bad? I had some like yours and I put a 12V 200 amp charge for 15 minutes at a time and brought it back to life.
I looked into doing that, but golf carts seem to have a bad reputation for catching fire while charging batteries. We've actually stopped charging during night hours while on vacation because we have heard of so many house fires due to golf carts being charged during the night.
Do you naturally get some voltage drop from just having a really long string of several batteries together, from there just being many batteries on a chain? Thanks.

Ive had very good results draing old acid and replacing with distilled water and epsom salts.

What ratio?

Seems like the store could have sent someone to bring the batteries out and get the old ones for you
Outstanding info
Awesome video, had the info I needed. Thank you!!&
Keep those batteries on the concrete any longer and you’ll be replacing them all in no time
2017 is not that old for a golf cart battery it's going on 4 years old.. mine usually lasts about 8 years with proper maintenance
i realize I am kinda off topic but does anyone know of a good website to watch newly released tv shows online ?
@Duncan Archer flixportal :D
@Orion Sonny Thank you, I signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there =) Appreciate it!!
@Duncan Archer no problem :D
Just do you a 12v marine battery swap!! This will save you hundreds of dollars!!!!
Never thought of that!
May I mention, the batteries have to be hooked up in series.
Can you stop wasting 3 minutes talking about all your excuses for not maintaining your batteries and just get to the damn point
I will...just give me 3 minutes
Hahahaha
