Default 48 volt to 12 volt for headlights

I have read that the headlights should be used on a 48 volt to 12 volt reducer to get better life from the batteries. I ordered a voltage reducer from Amazon for about $25 and it sparked as soon as I hooked the 48 volts to it. I sent it back, junk, it was only about $25. I have looked for a better one, but the prices really jump. I checked at the Club Car dealer on 441 near Sam's club and they want $300 for one. My question is, has others did this change and how much did it cost?
