1.The lifespan of Golf cart battery
If you use a lead-acid battery, its normais lifespan is about 3 years, while the life of lithium batteries in 8 years or so, if you carefully maintain the battery can extend its lifespan, but if some of your behaviour leads to damage to the battery, it will also shorten its lifespan. And the specific lifespan of the battery is closely related to your method of use, protection measures and so on.
2. Factors affecting the lifespan of golf cart battery
2.1 If you use a poor quality charger or charger power is too large may make the battery overcharging and thus shorten the lifespan of the battery;
2.2 Idle batteries for a long time, do not regularly charge the battery may make the battery power is exhausted, the performance and life of the battery have an impact;
2.3 If the battery is accidentally hit, the battery will be damaged and may even be scrapped;
2.4 If you use some unnecessary electrical appliances, they may drain the battery and cause damage to the battery;
2.5 If your golf cart battery uses a lead-acid battery, then water evaporation will affect the electrolyte concentration;
3. How to extend the life of your golf cart battery?
3.1 Regularly charge the battery to avoid battery depletion. Also note that lead-acid batteries should not be discharged more than 50% and lithium batteries should not be discharged more than 80%;
3.2 If your golf cart battery uses lead-acid batteries, you need to check the water level regularly, the water will evaporate a lot when the battery is charging, so you need to replenish the distilled water;
3.3 Use an automatic charger to avoid overcharging;
3.4 Regularly check and clean the terminals and connections of the battery to see if there is corrosion, if there is, you can choose to use baking soda to clean the corrosion to avoid corrosion to reduce efficiency;
3.5 Store the battery in a cool and dry place, avoid contact with high or low temperatures to avoid impacting the battery.
4. When you need to replace the golf cart battery?
4.1 Consider replacing your battery when it has been charged for too long but is still undercharged;
4.2 Replacing your battery when it is leaking or swollen can be a safety precaution;
4.3 If when the lithium golf cart starts very sluggishly or runs very slowly, it may be due to a battery that has been used for too long and has reduced performance.
4.4 If the output of the battery has decreased and the usage time is shorter when fully charged, it is time to consider replacing the battery;
5. How long can a golf cart battery be used after being fully charged?
A 48V 200Ah golf cart battery has a range of about 80 kilometers to 100 kilometers, but if you are driving on a bumpy road or the golf cart bears more weight, it may have a shorter range. In addition, the exact range depends on the capacity of the battery, tire pressure, and the condition of the vehicle.
Conclusion:
If you want your battery to last longer, you need to be careful to avoid behaviours that can damage it and take care of your battery regularly.
