OVERCHARGE PROTECTION

Never worry about overcharging, as the charger automatically stops when batteries reach set voltage. Should you have a relatively bad battery or batteries, the charger will safely and optimally charge the batteries without overcharging the good batteries.

BUILT-IN BATTERY FOR GOLF CART DESULFATOR RECONDITIONER / REJUVENATOR

Designed to help batteries charge faster and provide maximum performance and power. Prevents new batteries from becoming sulfated and rejuvenates older good working batteries by automatically dissolving harmful sulfation, by using safe high-frequency pulse technology. Patented WAVE technology increases battery efficiency, extends battery life by 2-3 times and keeps batteries from failing prematurely due to suffocating sulfate crystals, hence reducing early battery replacement costs.

LED AMP / VOLTMETER

LED display gives you accurate readings of battery/charge voltage, current, remaining time near the end of the charge cycle, and other useful information such as battery test and fault codes.

EXTENDS THE LIFESPAN OF YOUR BATTERIES

The smart charging characteristics of our desulfating battery charger will dramatically increase the life of the batteries.

POWER SAVINGS

Desulfated batteries charge quicker and reduce electricity consumption.

AUTOMATIC STOP & RESTART

Automatically stops charging when the batteries are fully charged, continues monitoring the battery’s voltage and automatically restarts charging when it detects a preset voltage drop. You can, therefore, have the charger connected to the batteries for months at a time.

TRICKLE CHARGE MODE

Compensates for the self-discharge of the batteries and varies the charge rate according to the frequency of discharge.

PULSE CHARGE MODE

Replenishing energy with a pulse current, which reduces unwanted chemical reactions, such as gas formation, crystal growth and passivation.

NO SPARK CHARGING, REVERSE POLARITY AND SHORT CIRCUIT PROTECTION

Prevents the output leads from sparking due to accidental reverse connection or short circuit.

COMPACT, CONVENIENT AND EFFICIENT

Small and light, adopting switch-mode technology aka switching power supply. This is different from linear power used in traditional chargers. More than 85% of electrical energy is transferred to battery chemical energy, during the charging process, compared with 40% for conventional chargers. This technology is applicable for all battery types (wet, maintenance-free, VRLA, AGM and Gel.)

HIGH-TEMPERATURE PROTECTION

If the charger gets too hot, it will automatically lower its temperature or switch off to protect the charger itself.

On a previous blog, Melbourne Beach Golf Cart gives several examples as to how switching to a lithium golf cart battery could provide several benefits for the golf cart, including a much longer driving range, less weight for the cart, many more battery charging cycles, zero harmful emissions, a much faster charging time, and up to 10 years of life. These are our Roy Pow lithium batteries, available as 56AH, 105AH, and 160AH. We’re pleased to announce that along with our Roy Pow lithium batteries, we now have 48V Allied lithium batteries available for sale.

Allied lithium batteries, 30AH each, are different from Roy Pow in that a minimum of two are required, for 60AH. This will give a cart a range of approximately 30-40 miles per charge, and each additional battery will add 15-20 miles of range. For example, 3 x 48V 30AH (90AH total) batteries will have a range of 45-60 miles per charge. Up to 6 can be installed. They are the same size as your current lead-acid batteries which allow you to convert your vehicle from lead-acid to lithium in less than 30 minutes – simply remove the lead-acid batteries and replace with the Allied lithium batteries, attach cables in parallel, secure holding bracket, and the install is complete! They are approximately 1/4th the weight of lead-acid batteries, reducing the overall weight of your cart by 300lbs. This sizable reduction of weight has benefits for all aspects of your cart, including tires, brakes and suspension parts.

• Mileages are based on stock fleet carts. Adjust for non-stock items: upgraded motors / controllers, AC units, older carts, etc.

• 2 x 48V 30AH batteries are required to run the cart efficiently.

• For carts with upgraded motors or controllers, 3 x 48V 30AH (90AH total) batteries (or more) are required.

• In order to maximize the life of the lithium battery, we require the use of the Allied charger.

• Includes OEM plugs, charge the batteries quickly and turn off when charging is complete.

• Additional batteries can be added to the cart up to 2 years after installing the first two or more! Great for users who want additional run-time after initial install.

Melbourne Beach Golf Cart is in the business of selling lithium golf cart batteries, most notably Roy Pow lithium batteries. With our turn-key replacement system, anyone can easily convert their golf cart from the standard lead-acid batteries to lithium batteries in less than an hour. Switching to lithium batteries comes with several benefits, and can take you and your golf cart to distances far beyond where it could go before, and then further.

Why choose lithium?

Lithium batteries are slowly beginning to enter the mainstream world of golf carts – they are universal and can be installed in any golf cart. At Melbourne Beach Golf Cart, not only do we offer Roy Pow lithium batteries, but for a nominal fee, we can install it and easily convert a lead-acid battery system in less than an hour. Roy Pow batteries also come with a 5-year warranty.

When buying a lithium battery, the price is higher than a regular lead-acid battery, but the benefits far outweigh the cost. For one, once that lithium battery is installed, it won’t need to be replaced for up to 10 years – up to 70% in expenditures can be saved over a 5 year period, since it won’t need to be continuously replaced like a lead-acid battery. Roy Pow lithium batteries have a quick charge time of approximately 2.5 hours, and can be rapidly charged to about 80% in only an hour. It takes up to five hours to charge the battery completely, and once fully charged, it will hold that charge for about 8 months when not in use. – they also have a life cycle of up to 3,500 charge cycles. The distance a golf cart can travel depends on the power level of the lithium battery, measured in amp hours (A/H):

56 A/H: 30-35 miles per charge.

105 A/H: 60-65 miles per charge.

160 A/H: 95-100 miles per charge.

Lithium batteries are also much better for the environment, since they aren’t made with harmful chemicals like lead-acid batteries and give off no dangerous fumes. Since they aren’t filled with water either, they don’t need to be maintained like lead-acid batteries, and are considered maintenance free. Roy Pow lithium batteries are much lighter as well – since multiple lead-acid batteries are used to power a cart, the weight increases vastly, but only one lithium battery is needed, and depending on the level of power, can weigh less than 100 pounds. This puts less stress on the golf cart, and allows it to carry more weight and reach higher speeds with less effort. A Roy Pow lithium battery also has multiple built-in safety measures, such as fire detection systems, water spray systems, flammable volatile monitoring and alarms, battery box warnings and protections, battery operating situation monitoring, and anti-collision, along with many other active safety systems. They have systems that prevent them from overcharging, over discharging, short-circuiting, overheating, and even have anti-theft systems and remote GPS tracking, with the ability to check the battery status remotely in real time.

To power a golf cart, 6 or 8 lead-acid batteries are needed. Only one lithium battery is needed to power this whole cart.

Why switch from lead-acid batteries?

Lead-acid batteries are the standard in almost every golf cart, most of the time being flooded lead-acid. These batteries need to be regularly filled with water, and also contain multiple chemicals and gases, including sulfuric acid and lead compounds. Not only are these batteries filled with a multitude of harmful chemicals, they have a possibility of giving off potentially dangerous fumes when plugged in to charge, and can even explode if something goes wrong during charging. The water inside also makes them very heavy, and with 6 or 8 in a golf cart, a lead-acid battery system can add over 300 pounds of weight to a golf cart. When plugging in a golf cart with lead-acid batteries, it’s very important to remember to lift up the seat to ventilate the fumes that may come off the battery, as buildup under the seat can be extremely dangerous. Cart owners with lead-acid battery carts must regularly perform maintenance on them, like waterfilling and terminal tightening, as well as cleaning potentially harmful acid deposits. Lead-acid batteries will also only last a few years at most, with a life cycle of about 500 charges. They need to be charged every day as well, and can take about 12 hours to fully charge. In short, lead-acid batteries do have their benefits and are easy to find, but don’t last long, and need to be replaced often – replacing them also comes with the cost of having them installed.
