OrionStang Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 Not so often as much, but I still see batteries posted up for sale that the seller claims are resting at 13.1 and higher. I have used almost every model of XS batteries, both new and used, and charge them using the HF1215. The highest I have ever seen is 12.8x, but most times I'll get 12.6-12.8. Are these guys using a special charging method, are they full of shit, or do I just have "low end of the spectrum" luck? 6 Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguels Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 the one you sold me rests at 13.1 over night after a good charge. drops to 12.8 by the 24hr mark. it can sit at 12.8 for daysssssssss.. have 5 of them that do the same Quote my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

never knows best Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 my battery tender charges to 14.8... then maintains 13.4 until you disconnect it... disconnected the batteries sit at 12.7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DubNDodge Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 my D925 rests at 12.8v while my d3100 rests at 13.1v. The overall voltage is 12.9v I know this because before I even got everything hooked up I had the 3100 chilling in my car without anything hooked up for like a week. checked it and it was still at 13.1v. It pissed me off when the front battery dragged it down Quote '01 Dodge Stratass Sealed Trunk Build Log 2008 Honda Fit Sport Build Log On 10/3/2013 at 10:00 AM, ROLEXrifleman said: Anyone who says they knew everything they wanted out of life at 19 can go suck a bag of dicks cause they are lying to themselves or brought up in a cult.

kirill007 Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 (edited) Less full of shit then understand what resting voltage means, and combine that with a cheap/uncalibrated DMM and there you go. But it should be around 12.8V, 12.6V is on the low side, eventhough we are talking about less then 2% difference. Edited February 12, 2015 by kirill007 Quote Thinking is the root of all problems...

Karkov Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 6 XS Power XP3000's sitting for 6 months rested 12.5-12.6 They never rest that low anymore now that they are on a maintainer all the time. However like said earlier, if a person has them charged or charging and disconnects and checks semi-soon after that they will be like 13.0-13.1 but after a dya they fall off and down from there. I have 10 XS power batteries, 4 different models, and 3 different charges/maintainers. I'm sure if someone has it hooked up, removes charger, then takes pics. of resting voltage they show 13+ for selling it, lol 1 Quote 2007 Chevy Tahoe (SOLD) 12 ~ FI Audio X series 10" w/BP option 2 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @0.67 3 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @1.0 2 ~ PPI 3 way sets (not installed yet) 1 ~ RF T400-4, 1 ~ RF T600-2, 1 ~ RF T600-4 4 ~ CT Sounds 5.25" Strato comps (rear fill only) 1 ~ XS Power D4800 1 ~ XS Power D3400 8 ~ XS Power XP3000 160 stock alt, Mechman 370 Elite, 185 DC Power 320+ Sq.

n8ball2013 Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 Rule of thumb is check at least 24 hours after taking off the charger. I could show my optimal floating at 13 plus if I did it ten minutes after I jnhooked he charger. There are people who claim they can train a battery to float higher too Quote THERE IS NO BUILD LOG! 1998 Chevy Silverado ext cab Alpine CDA-9887 4 Team Fi 15s 2 Ampere Audio TFE 8.0 2 Ampere Audio 150.4 3 Digital Designs CS6.5 component sets Dual Mechman 370XP Elite alternators inbound! 8 XS Power d3400 6 XS power d680 Second Skin Stinger Tsunami Wiring Sky High A Real Voltmeter not a piece of shit stinger.
