We have had BatteryMinders on our 36v and 48v carts for over a year and are very pleased with them.

We leave them connected when we are away (for up to four months) and carts are ready-to-go on our return.

Ours have the temperature sensors, which should turn them off if the batteries start getting hot and prevent any boiling over.

Too early to say if battery life will be extended.
