What Ah Lithium is everyone using?
I converted my DS to lithium with 50Ah, but it is just used around the neighborhood. Range isn’t a big concern. My 2012 Precedent is kept at my golf club, and gets used for 18 holes a couple times a week.
My question is, for golfing, what is everyone using for Ah in lithium? All the companies list miles of range, but I gotta think that doesn’t translate to golfing range. I’m guessing that all the starting and stopping will reduce the range significantly. The cart would probably never see more than 18 holes in a day, but it is a possibility. All you fellow golfers out there: What size Ah lithium batteries do you have? How many holes can you play? |

141 amp hours of Chevy Volt batteries. I play golf 3-4 times a week usually 27 holes. Round trip to the course and home is 9 miles. The meter is never below 40% soc. Going on 3 years with this setup.

I have 120AH using 14 Leaf modules. I can get about 3 rounds of golf including the ride to and from the club. (round trip is about a mile)

Re: What Ah Lithium is everyone using?
Do you guys think 50Ah will let me get 27 holes in? Or is that pushing it?

Re: What Ah Lithium is everyone using?
I would say that is pushing it depending on the cart and the course. You don't want to push Lithium batteries to their limits so you are much better off with more AH than you plan to use regularly.
