New battery company

[cahagg01]

I was looking for a lithium battery for Club Car DS that would be a drop in. I came across this company. Was wondering if anyone has ever dealt with them before?

Never heard of em. There's a discrepancy on their site for the 67ah battery. Photo says 200 amps continuous, while description reads 150 amps. I don't like seeing sh't like that.

Customers tell me they are having good luck with a 48 Volt 100Ah LiFePO4 Battery Amazon battery from CHINS.
I took delivery of this one yesterday, will replace a 72ah battery in the ranch daily driver with Alltrax, big tires, FSIP motor. Will post some results after some use. But for now I was convinced enough to try it.

Curious to hear how it goes. Watching reviews on the Chins some of the cheaper ones in the plastic enclosures do not have over current protection at all so hopefully thats not the case with this one.

I like the cube form factor. It has welded bus bars so if you think you might ever want to be able to repair it that might be an issue

The cube is what I liked about it, and having a 2000 club car DS, it would fit like the eco.

I like the size and shape of the reuter. Drops straight into one side of the Precedent. Video is very informing and worth a look.

That Walmart battery looks interesting. Nice to see prices coming down on this stuff.
The one I got says :
【Built-In BMS & Convenience & Maintenance Free】: CHINS LiFePO4 battery has built-in BMS (Battery Management System) to protect it from overcharge, over-discharge, over-current, and short circuit with excellent self-discharge rate.

I will set the Alltrax max map draw (MAD) lower than the 500 amp limit suggested by the manufacturer. My carts do not draw more than 350 amps so that's where I will set the controller limit. I'll put this in the daily driver so we can see how it works out.
