See my old thread here for inspiration.

Having learned from that cart... my most recent cart got brand new Trojans and I dont regret it at all.


So am I right by saying you just kept charging and using them. Which eventually got them going

That is correct. I kept charging them gently and over several days.

They did not provide alot of run time... but for tooling around the neighborhood or entertaining the kids it was fine for the short term.
I used a DPI Accusense charger and it did a great job keeping them alive.

I eventually sold that cart.

My current cart came without batteries so I had no choice but to install new Trojans.
I also keep them charged with a DPI Accusense charger.

Yeah the **** batteries are so expensive. I’m trying to make sure everything with the cart is good. Just want to get the motor to make some movement.

If you have a 48 volt cart, you are no where near charged up. A 48 volt cart should be a lot more volts to run.
