Over the past 6 years, I've built from scratch, around 10 lithium batteries now for golf carts ranging from 90ah to 304ah and installed a half a dozen more commercial lithium conversions.

My recommendations to people are as follows.

- 105ah, 35-40 miles, the smallest I will recommend is great for those who only play and shop in their local areas with occasional longer trips. Most people charge frequently.

- 150-160ah, 50-60 miles, this reach anywhere in the Villages. If you like to roam and the budget allows, get this size. This is the largest size offered by the Big 3 cart manufacturers and most of the conversion batteries. Only charge as required. This is my usual recommendation for people wanting a conversion, budget allowing...

-200-300 ah, 75-120 miles, (these are what I run) Never think twice about range worries. The downside is limited availability, they are only offered by a few non-mainstream cart manufacturers, so I build my own. Lol
