You should also move to a dedicated charger intended for the 6v batteries not a automotive type or the built in charger. Also stay at or above 80% battery capacity as much as possible to prolong battery life. I have 464 amps of battery power and I can go 3 days and nights and stay at the 80% mark it then takes 3-5 hrs to recharge.
Thanks for the info and the pictures. It’s very helpful.
