What happens when battery is not fully charged?
After a full charge, the voltage will slowly drop even when the bike sits in the garage. I have one older 2A charger which won’t charge the cells past about 4.1 V. Last edited by commuter ebikes; 06-04-2017, 07:35 AM . I was expecting to hit around 58.8. Yes I have a 14S pack.

On some of these chargers, you must unplug it from wall/battery, allow the LEDs to go completely out and then select charge %. Some chargers simply won’t change % without a power cycle. If you select 100% power it back up then measure the voltage at the charge connector to verify it’s around 58V. Power cycling is always a good thing.
