Default Will this controller work for 36v to 48v conversion

Was checking my local CL and noticed someone selling a Alltrax DCX300 controller for $100. Its listed for a 2002 IQ cart, but since I'm converting to 48v not sure what my cart will be when done.
Currently I have a 36v 1994 CC DS that I am thinking of converting if I can justify the total price. That's why I'm looking at CraigsList for discounted parts.
what you guys think will this work about this item?

You don't want to go IQ, stay series.

IQ will use a shunt motor, versus a series motor.You want to find a series controller, and preferably with a higher amperage, but not absolutely necessary, but later on you wont have to upgrade controllers again if you wanted more amps.Your cart now is a series

Thank you for clearing that up. Now it all makes sense. I guess I should at least look for a 400amp controller. Question is can I find one without spending $400(or more) on it?

I saw some where somebody had an Alltrax 400 amp controller and 200a solenoid for $369 with resistor and diode for 36 or 48 volts.

Hmm. Some one huh?? What else will I need to make it a 48v? Just out of curiosity if my 6v batteries are still good can I just add a couple more for my 48v? Or...What would happen if I just run 36v with 48v controller setup till im ready to replace batteries. Any benefit worth doing it now over later?

Email me if you really want to know what I think about buying controllers on CL and what all you need to make this 48v thing happen as inexpensively as possible.


Otherwise, keep studying up & looking around. You just might find what you need
