I have a 2006 CC IQ with motor / controller upgrade. My batts are only about 14 months old and I dont think they should read as low as they do. each batt reads 8.3 volts and the entire pack reads 50.5 volts. I tested 30 mins after the charger shut off. Are they suppose to be that low only after being 14 months old? I checked the water regularly and only use distilled water and always keep on charge, well sometimes it may sit over one night without charging? Thanks fo any help!!

Are you having a problem or just checking battery status?
Your current readings show 80%-90% charged.
First check the battery in your meter, it can give low readings.
The pack should be 50.96v and each battery should be 8.49v for a 100% charge.
The brand of the battery is unimportant to it's ability to take or hold a charge.
The finishing voltage from your charger in the final stage of charging your batteries should be around 60v.
