Hi
I am buying a new EZGO cart. Anybody have any info on which choice is better?
Thanks

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.

Thanks that is how I am leaning.

The 4 12 volts for a golf course was a good idea. Used the way most do in the villages, not so good. Adding more batteries is like adding a bigger fuel tank.

The 4 12V is an economical way to go with a lower cost of batteries, but does give you limited range. The 8 6V is preferred for higher range though. While both packs would have the same number of cells and plates, the 6V batteries have much thicker plates which lead to greater capacity.
