where do I connect the red @black cables from the B.M.to the posts on the 4/ 12volt batteries wired in series on my golf cart.

If they are wired in series, you will need to attach the charger to one battery at a time. Red to pos, black to neg as you normally would.You can either cycle through all four batteries, or buy 4 chargers.
2003203
Don, both Morrison and Robert are correct. This is a 12V maintainer and you have a 48V system. Cobra Mike is incorrect.
2003204
You do not connect the BK to a 48 volt system!!!! It is a 12 volt charger. To charge 4 batteries at one time they MUST be in parallel!!!
2003205
Since they are all hooked together you only need to hook up to one battery, being in sequence it will charge all of the batteries.
2003206
Your using 4 each 12volt batteries in series to obtain 48 volts. The model BM 12117 is 12 volts only and will not handle 48 volts. You will have to take the 12 volt batteries out of series by taking the battery cables off each battery and charging one 12 volt battery at a time. You can make some jumpers and put all four 12 volt batteries in parallel (all positives connected together and all negative together) and charge all four at the same time with BM red going to first positive battery post in the line of 4 + post and BM black going to first negative battery in line of 4 - post, since this connection set up is in parallel then your only dealing with 12 volts unlike the series which equals to 48 volts.

if your charger is 48 volt rated then connect to the two leads that leave the battery bank. the one that leaves the last positive terminal is the red connection the3 one that leaves the last negative terminal on the battery bank is the black connection. if it is a 12 volt charger then you have to charge each battery separately
2003208
Don't connect the BM to a battery bank that is wired in series to produce 48V. Your options are to separate the batteries from each other and charge them individually with the BM or disconnect them from the system and then wire them in parallel for charging with the BM. Both of these options might be a lot of work to accomplish the proper charging of your battery bank.

Works great for golf cart batteries @48 volt six 8 volt batteries will and should work fine for marine batteries

I am an electrical engineer this can be confusing. 1. even though the battery part number is 6-DW-5 the battery is 12Volts and 5 Amp hour2. the batteries are connected in series. 24V operation3. the controller wires connect: black neg wire connects to one battery. red pos wire connects to other battery4. the circuit breaker connects between the 2 batteries. red pos wire connects to first battery, black neg wire connects to other battery. make sure wire colors match polarity on batteries.5.you can replace the soldered connections with slide on terminals. however soldering is best if you have the skill.

The charging unit is 12 volt. I believe you can connect 2 6 volt batteries in series and connect the 12 volt regulator to it successfully. 6 volt golf cart batteries are quite popular to use as power storage.

Connect it straight to your battery. Use something like this: Scosche EBT Battery Terminal with ABS Cover Get one for Positive and one for Negative. Use size 12 AWG wire. You might be able to run just a black wire to battery, and the red to like a seat bolt or something as ground if it's easier, but a battery ground is never a fail. Good luck!

Connects directly to battery Positiove and negatiove posts..........I suggest using a heavy duty fuse which is flat and has a clear fuse box.also thru amazon. Easy install. It does coem with cables.

To be perfectly honest with you, if you aren't sure about wiring, maybe this isn't the right product for you. It will mean using trim tools and splicing to a found 12v wire. If you want to press forward, the red goes to a switched +12vdc source, and the black goes to a chassis ground point. Good luck.

Which connectors do you have on the battery? Are they the same as the charger? If so then you need to cut the existing banana connector off of the car and solder/heatshrink on the same connector that fits the battery and charger. I used XT60 connectors on my batts charger and esc. They work great for me. Here is the link https://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__9572__Nylon_XT60_Connectors_Male_Female_5_pairs_GENUINE.html I hope everything works out for you and enjoy your awesome buggy!

Check to see which two battery terminals are 48 volts on your battery pack. They will be the+ and - terminals with the cables that run to the charger port and the controller attached. When you hook the charger cables to the battery pack, make sure to hook the red clip to the positive+ post and black cable to the minus - post. Hope this helps. For best results leave it plugged into 110 outlet all the time you are not using the cart. This way your batteries are ready when you are. I love these things. I use them on all my carts.

I made my own cable with eyelets on each end and then put one end on the positive side of battery and the other end on the Flaming River switch then on the other terminal on the switch I connected my positive cable eyelet from camper. I hope this will help you I give the Switch 2 thumbs up.

The RXV connector plug is specifically used in Golf/Utility Carts for charging connections. However, you can always replace it with a different style if yours is different.

You need to connect that black wire to the bottom of the original pcb board, battery ground. You need both pcb board.

Hi Lisa, connect the BLACK wire (ground) directly to the battery and the RED wire (power) needs a 15 watt inline fuse. Best of luck.

The outputs are banana leads. Two connectors are provided - one has the Tamiya-style white plug, the other has bare leads you can solder on an appropriate plug to match your battery. The input is either with the included AC plug, or the DC connector with alligator clips to use your 12-volt battery at the field.

This will not work. This unit takes the 36/48 volts that a golf cart battery bank uses and reduces the output to 12 volts. It will not run a 110 volt rope light.

I used a 1/4-20 (1/4" dia., 20 thread per inch) tap to thread the existing bolt holes in the studs to prevent losing all those nuts and washers. I believe my cables are 4AWG with 5/16" connectors. One thought I had the other day is, I wonder how well a set of jumper cables would work at connecting between the inverter and battery?

In your golf cart you have 8 6 volt batteries witch = 48 volts. Hook in the wires one on the negative end of the batteries and the positive on the positive side of the fourth battery . This will give you 24 volts 4x6=24.
