Getting ready because ERCOT keeps threatening rolling blackouts for this summer. My inverter powers from my used 48V golf cart that came with good Trojan FLA batteries and Delta-Q 18A charger.
My 400W solar panels with MakeSkyBlue MPPT easily charge for my driving needs. However between rolling blackouts the Delta-Q charges at 1000W and at night. Whenever there is a threat of severe weather the cart is ready and on the wall charger.
The Delta-Q only floats at 51V where the Trojan specs recommend 54V. I’m not getting most of the available capacity. Actually surprised how well the batteries have performed at the low float voltage.
Does anyone have experience with the Delta-Q? I understand they can be user configured. Otherwise can you recommend a good replacement 48V 1000W~ish wall charger that will float at 54V, and can be reconfigured for my future upgrade to LiPo?
