04 precedent lithium conversion??
Hello this is my first time posting here and I'm not super versed on lithium conversions. I have a 2004 club car precedent that needed new batteries so I decided to buy some cheaper drop in 12v lifep04 batteries off Amazon. My question is do I just remove the 4 lead acid batteries and wire the lithiums in the exact same way? Also can I charge them in series with clamp on style charge or should I use the factory charging port?
Thanks in advance |

Here we go again. There are many threads here as to why 12v lithium is a bad choice. Here’s just one simple short one.

Re: 04 precedent lithium conversion??
All of those answers depend on what batteries you have. I have not seen the drop in 12V from Amazon - but I would be concerned about their having the current capability you need AND you need a proper charger designed for those particular batteries!!!

I don't believe Amazon sell high current batteries as would be required for cart use, just the basic back-up power batteries.

Amazon takes returns on pretty much anything and everything with no questions asked.
I’d take advantage of that policy and research and rethink your upgrade. |

My cart has 4 12v batteries can I wire these lithium batteries in series the same way as the Trojans?

Those batteries may work but you need to get a proper charger designed for them!
