I have read that Equalizing every charge cycle is great for
performance, but murder on cycle life, which seems to be how US
Battery wants to charge.
Another EV'er is also finding their US Battery 8 volters are dying
after only a year of use and about 4,000 miles.
I replaced my pack of MAXX29s after a 1,000 miles under warranty
because I was too lazy to equalize them.
I want to get at least 3,000 miles/150 Cycles from this pack, which
may be the limit of 12 volt batteries in EVs before I upgrade to
something better.
