Hi, feeling a bit naughty as I haven't posted in BC for ages and my question isn't even Caterham related I bought, second-hand, a kids elctric quad bike. We've used it, and importantly charged it, a few times...but the charge never seems to last that long and it always seemed a bit low on power. I've looked at the electrics and they seemed to have been modified along the way. Before launching into the details the basic question is, is the charger connecting up to the batteries properly to charge both of them? So there are 2, 10 volt batteries, each with a live and neutral. There are 4 wires from them, via a keyed-connector block, into the main harness for the bike (which presumably takes the power to the motor(s). The connector block has one sticking out pin and three sockets so it can only be connected up one way. This all makes sense to me so far. The charger only has two wires/pins and is rated as 12V output. As it was supplied, one pin connects to the live of one battery and the neutral of the other battery. There's no other connection between the batteries when charging. I've connected it up as it was, and I get 17V!? across the charging connection. I can only think this is basically the charger, and one battery, acting to charge the other!? So assuming this is wrong - what should I do to fix it? I'm assuming the simplest way is to charge each battery in turn. I.e. connect the two wires from the charger to the two wires from one battery...once charged then disconnect and conect to the other battery? Is there a simple way to alter the charger connection so it can charge both batteries at once? or is this impossible because the charger wont have enough voltage (and amperage!?) to charge both at once. Any advice (or sarcastic mocking) gratefully recieved!
