Be warned, i have seen battery tops melt from getting over charged and
running low on water. That was on an 80 volt battery bank that weighed
3800#'s, what a mess.
Be carefull and get them replaced and the charging problems corrected ASAP.
I assume that they were fine when new and they are now reas
Yes to all, and they will not hold a charge overnight

They should not be over 115 to 120 in most any case, and lower is always better.
A c/20 is a high rate and the batteries will hold their heat for a
while, lead heats and cools slowly.

The open circuit voltage should give a good indication of a shorted cell.

I used to work on electric gates, but infrequently. One gate I had worked

disabled, so I was not held liable.
I decided at that time that
Hi All,
I've got a client who already has a very heavy linear gate that was totally
cobbled with a inverter batteries etc to run a 2hp electric garage door opener
converted to this linear gate.
So any suggestions on off the shelf gate parts to convert this to a standard DC
only gate system?
