Default Re: Comments about your Lithium Battery

4) Pack voltage - 48
5) Controller upgrade - No
6) Motor upgrade - No
7) Series, Sepex or AC drive: 2003 CC DS
Tire size: 22x11x10 - off-road tires (has Jake's 4" lift kit)
9) Typical driving terrain - pavement, hills, grass, gravel - all of the above
10) Estimated range on pavement - after driving 18-miles (with 3 people on board, mixed as per #9), batteries are down to 30% so maybe at 20-miles it will get to 20% - which is I think the most we should drain Lithium batteries right? I've only gone on that long of drive twice; mainly because it takes so long (see #11).
11) Average and Top speeds: limited to 20 - per local regulations
12) Likes or dislikes - Love the batteries, No maintenance, LOT less weight.
13) Additional comments - if I ever have to rebuild - I will probably build my own - just for fun. Nothing wrong with BB batteries, I just like to build things. Reason I didn't build my own last time around because old Trojans were almost dead and didn't have a lot of time build and test etc.
Thank you for your info! You are the first BB response.

#7 Does your cart have a run/tow switch? If so it is sepex and if not it is series drive.

With 30% left, that means you used 70% in the 18 miles of mixed surface. 70% of 80 Ah is 56 Ah usable down to the 30%. 56 / 18 = 3.1 Ah per mile consumption. That is pretty good for the type of driving you do.
