x1 875
new guy here wanting some info. i just got a ezgo xi 875, with no charger. wondering if i could pick your brains a little. the cart had 8 6v batteries in series. the data plate showed it was a 36v system. i converted it back to 36 volt
hooked up my 3 bank minnkota charger from my bass boat( 3banks 10 amp/bank) have got the batteries to 6.6v. i can drive it everything seems fine except the power guage/ horn/ lights dont work. so i think i am good to go for now. but any ideas why they would have had this set up for 48 volts. the controller is an altrax modelaxe4844p 24-48v motor is GE 5bc48jb870 36v cart serial number 11164 mnufacturing code j1192 also what do you recomend for a charger the minnkota took 20 hours to bring it up from 3v to the 6.6 v so not to bad i figure it will work for now any input would be greatly appreciated thanks Jeremy |

Re: x1 875
Welcome to BGW
The 36v series motor will produce 33% more speed and torque on 48v. This is why many owners opt for the higher voltage. Golf Cart batteries need 10% of their amperage capacity delivered in the initial or bulk replenishment. For a 6v battery this is around 20 amps. Using a lower amperage charger will leave the heavy elements stuck on the plates or stratified on the cell floor ( not active in the water ) One option is here > http://www.cartsunlimited.net/yewy-1...t-charger.html |

Re: x1 875
would it be ok to hook the 2 other batteries and run 48v with the parts that are on there?
or will it screw something up? it does seem to have a square charging plug on the floor board and a ac plug by the shifter not sure what is going on there does the charger have different ends? thanks |

Re: x1 875
The alltrax is 36 or 48 volts. Check the solenoid is 48v rated. If yes go for it. Seems that is what the previous owners were doing with the 8/6v. I have this set up in my industrial cart
 Sounds like it may have an on-board charger? AC plug ? Otherwise the UY chargers have a bunch of adapters available for whatever you need. The DPI chargers come with many different plugs too. Good luck and have fun |

Re: x1 875
the plug went to a small schauer charger output 48volts 2.5 amps
the other plug says anderson looks like sb50 from the link you sent me for a charger the solenoid is a: white rogers R6M. type 586-11711-6 36v cont so i am assuming they were over powering the 36 v solenoid and running it with 48v so would you suggest switching solenoids if i want to run 48v? thanks |
