batteries
I don know how batteries are set up on a LXI but any that are in a group
need to be replaced together. If they are not in the same condition they will discharge each other. A good set of batteries will SLOWLY return to around 12.6 volts when the charge is removed if there is not drain. The voltage you are seeing indicates a dead cell or battery in the bank. - Chuck Wheeler - 82 FC 31 SB Fort Worth, TX _____ From: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com [mailto:WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of pattypape Sent: Tuesday, June 05, 2007 5:35 AM To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Re: Batteries I would load test the batteries, and check the wet ones with a hydrometer. Could be just one or more dead cells. Disregard age of batteries, cells do die from overly discharging.
