how many miles can you go now until you get to 50% charge or 48.5 volts?
I haven't check my mileage, but I think I've gone over 25 in a day. I've gotten in the habit of plugging in every time I come home so I really haven't pushed the batteries as far as they can go except once. I live in Silver Lake and I was returning from LSL after a day of running around. I didn't record my mileage, but I almost didn't make it over the golf cart bridge. Since that experience we got in the habit of plugging in whenever we're home.

What's the problem with just leaving your cart plugged in if you're gone for several weeks or months. When I was in the golf business we left them plugged in all winter.
