06 Club Car Precedent Adding power inverter

dc_customdesign · 10-18-2015, 12:11 AM

How would I go about adding in a power inverter? I have a Cobra brand one that I believe has hook ups to go directly to the battery, but I'm not sure how that would go on a golf cart! I'm wanting to be able to run Christmas lights for the light parade in December, or charge a phone, etc.. Any help, like always, is greatly appreciated!

i would get a reducer and wire the inverted to it that way you use the battery packs full power and not ruin a battery

here is a good deal

You have to make sure the inverter doesn't exceed the DC voltage reducer output, also consider all of the other accessories on it as part of the load.

I added a rack mount APC 2200 , turns out the battery packs were 48 volts so I now can use my pole saw with it,... it pulls 57 amps and just un plug it and remove when not needed

That is very cool!

Best way? Probably buy a 110 inverter that works with your 48V battery pack.

Something like this.

Or find one that's made......where? Not even sure there are any made anywhere else! I just know a reducer that can handle the amperage of a 110 inverter that would run anything useful is going to be a lot more than just an a 110V inverter that's made to work with 36 or 48 volts.

Ok, I'm still super confused... Why was I able to run the headlights, tail lights and horn on my 06 Precedent without a reducer, or is it something with the factory harness? I just really want to be able to plug in led Christmas lights.
