Gem Golf Cart batteries
 

[QUOTE=rosebudandbuddy;831542]:gc: Hi: Don't know if I am in the right place but if anyone can help me with my problem, I would be very grateful.

I have a Street Legal Gem e-2 cart and when my Gel batteries started going bad. I decided to get AGM glass mat. batteries from NorthStar. My friend recommended them as he runs them in his boat all day long, and recharges them for the next day.

I have not had good results as it seems there has to be a new configeration of the battery charger and that meant buying a new charger (ride for fun) . So far I can't get the batteries to get a full charge and the reps from the charger and from NorthStar have been unable to help. It has been more than five months since I have been able to go farther than 15 miles on a charge. The batteries go great guns when I start out and then at the halfway point, they just go down to the danger zone and I had better be close to home. Many times I have limped home at 10 mph.

:popcorn:you sure the stock batteries were GEL I looked up batteries for that cart and they used wet cells. There is no way a AGM battery is going to last like a golf cart wet cell you need to live with it.
