Re: 2014 48v EZGO TXT - DCS or TXT48
Thanks both of you for the information. It seems like quit a bit of money just to see what settings are in my control box. I am very good with PCs and software (ex-IT guy), but the purchase of the cable or the meter is more than I want to spend right now. Maybe hook up to one of you guys and see what I have, if the charge isn't too much.
Thanks you guys time in educating me. |

When I started working with computers, they had vacuum tubes and occupied large buildings. I stuck with it and became one of the early NSA level hackers. I still train NSA hackers but the hackers of today only learn the tools, not the techniques that allow one to gain entry into any networked computer without tools. I went to a trade show in Atlanta GA where a firewall vendor bragged that their product was hackproof. I warned them that advertising as hackproof was foolish, nothing networked is hackproof. They challenged me to hack their server. I accepted their challenge, grabbed a laptop, and within 10 minutes I had control of their server, right through their "unhackable" firewall. I handle national security these days. Gotta have a hobby, right? |

Well, you are certainly on a different level of networking skills than me. Especially at a national security level.
I think at this point I will just focus on adding some accessories to my cart. Just need to figure out if a spare 12v battery would be better than a 48v to 12v reducer. Will browse the forum for additional info. |

The reducer is the way to go if you want the least amount of hassle. Running an accessory battery too low too often creates another short battery changing interval that can be avoided.

The only time I’ve read of needing a separate 12v is when using a winch as is draws to many amps. And when I say winch I mean the motor with a cable for pulling you out of a tuff spot not the girl you fell for at a renaissance festival.

Re: 2014 48v EZGO TXT - DCS or TXT48
Thanks for the input on this stuff. I just wasn't sure if my head/tail lights, radio, LED glow lights, USB/chargers would be too much of a draw. If all else fails, I could always add a 12v battery later.
Speaking of my head/tail lights, the dealer installed them and attached them directly to my battery pack (48v). So they can be turned on at anytime. I want them wired to my key switch. I was under the assumption that all accessories were 12v. Do lights come with a reducer built in? |

A lot of the new light kits using leds can be connected directly to the pack and from a large range of voltage. If you want to wire them through the key switch you will need a 48 volt relay.
