Hello Guys,
I have bought a simple E-bike moped for my mum when my dad passed away, in the hope it would be easier to handle than a car.

However, after two years of use, my mum complained that the power is decreasing in the battery.
The moped has not been used for several months now and this last weekend I disassembled the battery pack, 6 batteries 12 V, Five of them gave approx 10V before I put them back and tried to charge them. But one battery gave 0V.
I started to charge and the battery charger stopped charge after just 1 hour. Normal charging use to take 8 hours.
After that, I only measured approx 64V all batteries together. It should be 72V.
However is it possible to disassemble the battery pack again and try to charge each battery with a normal car battery charger to see the condition of each one of the batteries? Or do you guys recommend some other way? Perhaps a normal car battery charger will "break" this kind of battery?
My suspicion is that at least one of the batteries is so bad so it must be replaced. If I'm lucky perhaps five of them are still good to use. But I need to find out in some way.
What do you think guys?
Best regards
Fredrik
