Better battery life with new controller?

Dela · 10-21-2018, 03:26 PM

Am I having high hopes or still in my Alltrax honeymoon phase or is it possible I am getting better battery life with this new controller?

I'd generally be in the 47's or low 48's after a four hour round, since the Alltrax install I remain in the 50's after a round. Played twice yesterday and came home with 49.

My assumption is I'm using less battery power with the controller - am I nuts?

If you upgraded the cables and solenoid at the same time you upgraded to an XCT, they may have been contributing factors. Also, if you were using the stock TXT48 controller to run the aftermarket Admiral motor, the field mapping wasn't as well matched as it is now.

You may be nuts, but it you probably are getting better "Gas" mileage.

Maybe your playing better golf and spending less time riding around to find golf balls...

I know, wishful thinking right?
