What You Need to Know First
Your golf cart will determine the required voltage, BCI group/size, and capacity (Ampere-hours) for its batteries.
What Golf Cart Do You Have?
+ Gas-powered carts will need a starting battery.
+ Electric carts typically require multiple batteries, depending on the overall voltage (36V or 48V).
2 Key Power Features for Purchase
+ The voltage (Volts or V) translates to how much power.
+ The current (amps or A) translates to how fast the power goes.

How to Choose Your Golf Cart Batteries?
Determining Your Cart's Voltage
+ Common Voltages: Golf cart batteries typically operate at 6 volts or 8 volts (connected in series).
+ Typical Configuration: Most golf carts operate in the voltage range from 36V to 48V.
Determine the Desired Amperage
+ Amperage affects the distance and duration of your charge.
+ Higher amperage means a longer drive per charge.
+ Leisurely rides, opt for higher voltage. For shorter, more responsive rides, prioritize higher amperage.
Determining Your Battery Group Size
+ Proper sizing ensures a snug fit and effective performance.
+ Common Sizes: Group 24, Group 27, and GC2. The specific size required will depend on your cart’s battery compartment.

Lithium: The Best Golf Cart Battery?
Why Upgrade to Lithium Golf Cart Battery?
No “Perfect” Golf Cart Battery, But Right for You
+ Extended Run Time
Enjoybot LiFePO4 golf cart batteries can double to triple your run time, providing more freedom on and off the green.
+ Longer Lifespan
These batteries can be cycled up to 4,000 times at 100% DOD, have a lifespan of up to 10 years, and require minimal replacement, ensuring long-lasting performance.
+ Lightweight
Enjoybot golf cart batteries weigh only 1/2 of lead-acid batteries, reducing the burden on the golf cart and improving maneuverability and speed.
+ Zero Maintenance
These lithium batteries require no maintenance or watering, can be installed in any orientation, and charge 5 times faster than lead-acid batteries.
How to Choose Battery Charger?
The charger you choose must be compatible with the battery chemistry you're using, whether it’s flooded, AGM, or lithium-ion.
Can I use SLA chargers for LiFePO4 battery?
+ Please use a LiFePO4 battery charger, as most SLA chargers use an incompatible charge algorithm. Using an SLA charger may reduce battery performance and lifespan, or even cause irreversible damage.

| Battery | Charge Voltage Range | Best Charge Voltage |
| 12V | 14.2V - 14.6V | 14.4V |
| 24V | 28.4V - 29.2V | 28.8V |
| 36V | 42.6V - 43.8V | 43.2V |
| 48V | 53.25V - 54.75V | 54.0V |
Care & Maintenance
Keep the Batteries Clean
Periodically inspect your battery terminal connections to ensure they are clean, secure, and protected from the elements, as corrosion can impair battery performance and pose safety risks.
Store the Batteries Properly
If you intend to store your golf cart for an extended period, remove the batteries and place them in a cool, dry location. Make sure the batteries are fully charged and covered to shield them from dust and debris.

LIFEPO4 GOLF CART BATTERY FAQ
How to install Enjoybot LiFePO4 battery on golf cart?
How to install Enjoybot LiFePO4 battery on golf cart?
Simply remove the lead-acid batteries and replace them with the Enjoybot Lithium Battery. In case of multiple battery packs, please attach cables in series, secure the holding bracket, and the installation is complete.
The connection example diagram is as follows:

As long as the battery is not inverted, it can be installed in various orientations. However, ensure that the positive and negative terminals are properly aligned and not positioned at the top if the battery is placed on its side.
A Few Things to Consider When Replacing Battery
A Few Things to Consider When Replacing Battery
Please note that when multiple identical LiFePO4 batteries are connected in series, the voltage difference between each battery is required to be less than 40mV, otherwise your battery may not be fully charged or the battery capacity may be insufficient.
Therefore, it is necessary to measure the voltage of each battery in the battery pack before installing the battery. If the voltage difference is greater than 40mV, you need to manually balance the voltage first, the specific operation is as follows:
Suppose you buy 4 12.8V 100AH LiFePO4 batteries
(1) Please remove all battery cables and equipment, and use DC 14.2-14.4V charger or DC power supply to fully charge the 4 batteries respectively;
(2) Please connect the 4 batteries in parallel, let the 4 batteries connect in parallel for more than 12 hours, and then untie the cables connecting the 4 batteries in parallel;
(3) Please test the voltage of the 4 batteries separately. If the voltage difference between the 4 batteries is ≤40mV, it means that the voltage has been balanced and can be installed on the golf cart in series.
