Would be great to get some real data on one if anyone has the time. Would love to know what the voltage of the pack is after driving 25, 35 , or more miles.
I read all the time that someone goes <a big number> miles, but I never see what the state of the pack is after that happens. |
I have an 2010 EZGO RXV 4 passenger with the 4/12 volt configuration. The batteries are 2.5 years old and the cart has 5,000 miles on it. I have noticed a deterioration in range but that doesn't prevent me from zooming all over The Villages. We live in Pennecamp and going to Spanish Springs and back, or Walmart on 466 and back, Approx 16-18 miles round trip, the batteries are approx. 50% discharged.
Obviously, more weight, i.e. 4 passengers vs 2, the range will decrease. Playing 9 holes of golf going from Pennecamp to Saddlebrook, the furthest course from our home that we played, approx 15 miles round trip, plenty of power left, approx 75% charge.
If I had to do it over again, I would have opted for more batteries, i.e. the 6/8 volt configuration, just to have a little extra range. Hope these numbers help you in your decision.
