What is the Best Type of Battery for a Golf Cart? Comparing Options
Through my years in battery manufacturing, I’ve guided countless golf cart operators through the complex decision of selecting the optimal battery type for their needs. The best battery type depends on specific requirements, but lithium batteries1 generally offer superior performance with 2-3x longer life, 50% weight reduction, and minimal maintenance. However, lead-acid options2 remain viable […]
What Kills Golf Cart Batteries? Understanding the Causes and Solutions
Through my years in battery manufacturing, I’ve witnessed countless premature battery failures that could have been prevented with proper knowledge and care. Golf cart batteries primarily fail due to improper charging practices1, extreme temperature exposure, deep discharges, poor maintenance, and incorrect water levels in lead-acid batteries. These factors can reduce battery life by 50-70% if […]
Are Lithium Batteries Good for Golf Carts? Exploring the Benefits and Considerations
Through my years of experience in battery manufacturing, I’ve witnessed countless golf cart operators transform their operations after switching to lithium batteries. Lithium batteries are excellent for golf carts, offering 2-3 times longer lifespan1, 50% weight reduction, faster charging, and consistent performance. While initial costs are higher, the long-term benefits often justify the investment. Working […]
Can You Replace a Lithium Battery with a Lead-Acid Battery in Your Golf Cart?
Throughout my years in battery manufacturing, I’ve encountered many operators considering switching from lithium to lead-acid batteries1, often driven by initial cost concerns. While it is technically possible to replace a lithium battery with a lead-acid battery in a golf cart, it’s generally not recommended due to performance differences, weight variations, and system compatibility issues.
