For the battery conditioning period, I was instructed by dealer to wait until the battery meter was down to 3 bars before I charged the batteries. Because of this, during the conditioning period when my cart was new, I charged the batteries about once a week. The conditioning period is over now but I still continue to charge the batteries about once a week. I don't need to charge the batteries every night because I don't drive it very much. Neither my husband or myself plays golf.
