56v conversion?
Is this a thing?
I haven’t really been able to find any info on doing this. I want to increase my range a little more and increase my top speed. I currently am running a 1996 48v series cart (6-8v batteries). It has a 500a Alltrax controller and supporting mods. I’ve been tempted to add a 7th 8v battery to the pack. In theory it would increase my range and spin the motor a little faster, thus more top speed. Is this a viable option? Where would I get a 56v charger? Could I have my current charger modified? Would I need to bypass the OBC? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: 56v conversion?
charge 48 volt cart like now , buy 7th 8volt battery and 8 volt charger (and charge it )…..
add 7th battery to pack and off you go …. drive till need charge , take 7th battery out of pack (some kind of "quick change " where ever you mount #7 so you can go back and forth from 48 to 56) charge as before ….. DISCLAIMER :....no clue how this would affect OBC thingy and cart could catch on fire !!! but that's the way me and beer would try it..... |
