Third, install the mounting bracket. BattLite provides tailor-made brackets designed to fit popular cart brands like Club Car, Yamaha, and EZGO models such as RXV and TXT. Fourth, after securing the battery with the right bracket, connect the terminals. Finally, turn the cart back on and check that everything runs smoothly. The steps may vary depending on different golf cart types and configurations.
Charging Guide of BattLite Lithium Golf Cart Batteries
To maximize the performance and lifespan of BattLite lithium golf cart batteries, using the original battery charger with proper charging is essential. BattLite lithium battery chargers feature high efficiency, compact size, exceptional stability, and long service life. They offer a high level of protection, reliable performance, and comprehensive safety functions, making them an ideal power supply solution for golf cart charging.
Charging the battery is straightforward. Taking the 48V 100Ah BattLite BAT5000 lithium golf cart battery as an example, connect the 15A charger output port to the battery and the input port to the power socket securely. Once connected, power the charger on, and it will start detecting the battery voltage. If a battery is detected, normal charging starts automatically. If not detected, the charger will automatically activate the battery before starting the charge. A full charge typically takes approximately 6.6 hours under normal operating conditions.
Apart from charging from the utility power, BattLite lithium batteries for golf carts support charging from solar panels and generators, offering more flexible and off-grid power solutions. When using solar panels, it’s essential to connect them through an MPPT controller to ensure stable and efficient charging. The charging current of the MPPT controller should not exceed 30A and the maximum voltage should not exceed 58.4V. For generator charging, the generator needs to be equipped with a charger to charge the battery. The configured charger current shall not exceed 30A and the maximum voltage shall not exceed 58.4V.
Battery Energy Management Guide of BattLite Lithium Golf Cart Batteries
BattLite lithium golf cart batteries are equipped with a battery SOC meter, which provides clear, at-a-glance information such as battery level, voltage, current, and fault information in real time, allowing drivers to quickly assess battery status during operation and respond to any abnormal conditions promptly. The included 3.5-meter extension cable makes it easy to install the meter in a convenient, visible location.
In addition to the meter, users can connect to the battery via Bluetooth through the dedicated BattLite app. The app delivers a more detailed overview of the battery’s internal status, including remaining charging time, total discharging time, temperature data, and charging status. There is no need to monitor the battery status with the PC. It also enables remote updates, making maintenance more convenient and efficient.
Whether on the meter or in your hand, BattLite gives you full visibility and control over your battery, helping extend its lifespan, avoid unexpected issues, and ensure every ride is powered with peace of mind.
