When you guys get this one solved, how about some help on my lawn tank sprayer,
nee electric golf cart. Six, count'em 6, 6 volt batteries in series. According
to a battery tester all batteries are good but show that they need a good
charge. Leaving the golf cart charger on 12 hours (as recommended) results in
about 10 minutes of steady speed followed by 3 or 4 minutes of dying batteries
trying to get back to the garage. New soldered connection cables, grounds
cleaned, etc.
