Re: Expert battery advice needed - Aixam Mega City

Re: Expert battery advice needed - Aixam Mega City
Hi Greg, Thanks for your thoughts. The inbuilt charger on the Aixam only looks at the terminal voltage of each of the 12, 12V batteries, not at individual cells so a new charger looks required.

Re: Expert battery advice needed - Aixam Mega City
Hi Carl, well I have received 2 Megapulse units and installed them in my car. It was suprisingly easy, I didnt have to take the whole floor coverings out.

Re: Expert battery advice needed - Aixam Mega City
Hello Carl, I have been sent a reply from Megapulse suggesting that 2 x 24V units are used as shown on the diagram. I have 2 thoughts, is there room to place them on top of the batteries, I reckon the units are 2 1/2" - 3" thick. Also, How easy is it to remove the seats and floor pan ? hav...
