The general consensus seems to be that the more batteries, the better. Many people, including myself, are considering going from six 8 volt batteries to eight 6 volts.
I think that some golf cart companies went to four 12s in order to save weight, but from everything I've heard it doesn't work. Most of the experts say the eight 6 volt configuration is the best.
