Hello Everybody,
This is my first post here.
Wonderful forum you've got yourself
I recently bought the Golden motor 48v Magic pie motor and LiFePo4 lithium battery and I love it.
It's green and...its mean !
It came with the HP8204L3 charger.
I need to buy another charger.
The original charger has a label "Output : 58.4 v"
I measured the output of the charger (with no load) and it is about 48v.
Which charger do I need ? 58.4v or 48v ?
There are some chargers on eBay but they either have plastic cases like this one:

or they are metal but are smaller in size than the original. For example this one:

This is the original one which costs more than 100$.

How do I know the charger I'm buying is the right one for for my battery ?
Any specific recommendations ?
