Lithium Battery Conversion
Has anyone tried the Allied Lithium battery conversion kit? They replace six 8volt batteries with Four 12volt batteries. They are a direct conversion because they are the same size as the present batteries so you remove the old batteries and drop 4 of these in their place. They have built in battery control circuitry and can use your present charger. They weigh about 1/4 as much as your present batteries and will last over 10 years. Depending on the amp hour rating of the ones you buy, you can do the conversion for around $2K. and will go over 60 miles. What's not to like? I'm sick of buying lead acid that don't last and are heavy and require maintenance. These are the future of golf cart propulsion. Buying lead acid now, is like buying a rotary phone. What's the down side?
