my new hunting cart project
Hello, I have been lurking for a while and now I just got me a newer cart and plan on using it for hunting purposes. I have an older club car that I have been using for a few years but needed something newer that could be modified more easily.
I decided to add an extra 12volt battery instead of using the bank batteries. I had space to add one under the seat and feel this gives me an easier way to add more accessories as I get them and not worry about hurting my bank batteries After having it a few days the first addition was rear work lights. I plan on adding the same style lights up front next but I'm still thinking about were the best mounting location would be? |

Have you looked at LED lights?
You can get lights just as bright with about a 3 amp draw (instead of 10 or 12 amps per light for incandescent). |

Ok added a few more items. A horn for city use and battery state of charge meter.
Plus some Green LED lights for use while on the trail at night to help keep a low profile and not disturb the wild life. The lights are not as bright as they look. You are able to see at least 25 feet in front of the cart with no problem. |

I got them at AutoZone. They are the type that are used to light up under or inside a car or truck. they had two types ultra bright which states to be 80% brighter or the regular type which I got because of the darker green light that come from them. two 12 inch pieces 18 led's each.
