ChargerConnect

I was able to connect to the charger the first time after that it is in a loop to select device it shows a quick summary than back to select device screen

Bluetooth connectivity is absolutely horrible. The first day I used it, it connected and worked fine. The second day (today) I have tried countless times and ot connected once. I’ve turned Bluetooth off/on multiple times, shut my phone off (this seemed to make to work once). I’ve unplugged/plugged in the charger. Sigh…

I kept having issues and could only get the app to work one time. Lester Customer Service said I need to disconnect from the app each time. As long as you do that it continues to work. It is a very good app but they need to fix the disconnection problem. I will give kudos to Lester’s Customer Service for the quick response. Thank you, Bill.

As of 8/3/23 still doesn’t work. I deleted the app and then downloaded it again. iOS 16.6 I have a 2008 Club Car golf cart that I replaced the charger with a Lester charger. It is an excellent charger, and does what I wanted. It should make battery maintenance this winter much easier. Now the for this app. When it works which isn’t very often is nice. I downloaded it to my iPhone, and it connected to Bluetooth and worked as advertised. I used it a second time, it worked again. Then after that it no longer shows up in my Bluetooth device list. When I run the app I see the serial number of my charger, so it knows that the charger is there. When you select the device, the spinning starts and you get the message reading data. Then you see the message no device found, and you are right back where you started. The fix was disconnect the charger from ac power, and disconnect from the battery. Delete the app from the iPhone. Reinstall the app, reconnect to the battery, but don’t plug in the charger. Next launch the app, and things are working again. Now you can plug in the charger. Then after you run the app a second time, you are right back where you started, and the delete sequence needs to be done again. Apparently the app seems to delete itself from the Bluetooth device list on my iphone. I hope they get the app fixed, because it is pretty worthless working like this.

Should have read the reviews before buying this charger. The app is a waste of time, won’t connect again after the first time just boots you out. Only works the first time and the “fix” is to disconnect from power and the battery to reset only to have it work one time again. I don’t want to do all that every time I charge my cart. Worthless.

It works I guess. It gives odd conflicting information about the State of Charge and sometimes it won’t give any information, it starts to connect and then goes back to then”connect” page. More times than not I get a Red Light Error that it’s reached “max” hours. I’ve had several discussions with Lester Support and they are sort of helpful but not completely. Maybe, they are too technical. It’s complicated bc there are issues that affect it that they don’t explain to you. I’m not an engineer. The merchant is no help either. The charger seems to have kept my batteries charged and in good shape, but the App leaves a lot to be desired. I’ve had this for several years and there has not been a single app update. Surely, the have repaired some bugs? I paid extra for this charger for the app use. I want reparations!

Charger itself works great. App is junk. Have to uninstall from my phone every time I want to look at status. After reinstall it works maybe 20% of the time. Currently haven’t been able to connect for two days. FIX YOUR APP. PAID ALOT OF MONEY FOR THIS CHARGER Update 5/12/23 App is still junk. Constantly searches. Charger is great but app is awful.

App either won’t connect or it keeps saying that there is 1% charge. It has actually worked properly, but only a few times. I have brand new AGM batteries.

What’s the point in paying for a Bluetooth charger to see the state of your batteries and charging status if the Bluetooth never works… this app is just in a constant loop of searching and crashing. When you try and connect to it the three lights will flash on the charger for a second and then it fails. I have tried deleting and reinstalling the app, making sure iOS was completely up to the current version and deleting and installing the app again. Nothing ever works. I have made sure all other apps were closed on my phone, tried airplane mode with just Bluetooth on, dozens of restarts, unplugging and re-plugging in the charger… HORRIBLE… Here’s the thing, yes, the charger still charges the batteries, but a much cheaper charger can do the same job this charger does without the added crappy app. I don’t typically leave reviews often but this is just awful…

Hopefully they update this app, charger works but app needs work. Will only connect to the charger once, after it starts charging, you can not reconnect unless you unplug and replug. I like the idea of using the phone to change battery profiles and check battery state of charge but this app needs a lot more work.
