Amp draw
Morning - I have an 2006 Club Car Precedent, 48V...how much is too much of an amp draw for a set of lights.... I got a pair of KC LED lights for the front of my cart but unsure if I use them it will draw down the batteries too much. The specs say they pull 2.0 amps per light.... I have two lights. With everything else running on the cart how much would the extra draw effect the cart. Is there a calculation??
Thanks |

Re: Amp draw
If you use a 48-12 volt reducer the draw on your pack will be less than 2 amps.

Re: Amp draw
Power, expressed in Watts is Voltage x Amperage so a light pulling 2 amps at 12V is using 24 Watts. For the pack to supply that 24 Watts from 48V it would need to provide 0.5 Amp

Re: Amp draw
Light her up all you want! As long as you don't draw more than the reducer is rated for, the reduction in "mileage" will only be measurable with a tape measure as it is negligible compared to the motor.
