Going 48V...Need a shopping list!
Hey Guy's...
I have decided to go to 48 V for my cart. Just need some insight on what has to be swapped out. Here is what I have.. 96 EZGO TXT DCS cart with a 400amp Alltrax DCX controller and solenoid that I bought from ScottyB along with 4 G. battery cables. My cart will have a Jakes Long travel suspension with 23" tires and rear seat....I also have a brand new Admiral MOT B2 motor...my questions are: 1. Can I use this Controller or do I need a 500amp? New solenoid? New F/R switch? 2. Do I need new battery cables? 3. I know I need a new charger and 6 8V batteries, but what about my current headlights and brake lights? 4. Am I missing anything else? Please give my your thoughts and concerns. ScottyB. can you give me part #'s because whatever I need, I am getting them from you! Thanks Guys! |

Re: Going 48V...Need a shopping list!
1.a. The DCX400 will very likely be sufficient because fewer amps are needed at 48V to do same amount or work.
1.b. Depends pn which solenoid you have, If you have the Super-Duty 400A continuous/1000A peak (MZJ400), it works at 36V, 42V and 48V. Otherwise, you'll need a solenoid with a 48V coil. 1.c. F/R switch in a DCS cart isn't voltage specific. so it ought to be okay. 2. 8V batteries have both terminals on same side, so the cables used with the 6V batteries in the 36V pack will be too short. 3.a. Get a DPI 3.b. Either use a DC-DC converter (Voltage Reducer) or install a separate 12V battery for the 12 accessories. 4. I'm sure you'll have more questions. |

Re: Going 48V...Need a shopping list!
The DCX400 should handle the B2 just fine, Contact Alltrax for the field map for the DCX .
The DCS does not need a F&R upgrade. It likely needs a 48v solenoid. And a 48v charger. Get a MZJ400 solenoid here > http://www.cartsunlimited.net/solenoids.html Get the Yewey 48v 20 amp charger for $229 here > http://www.cartsunlimited.net/yewy-1...t-charger.html Get a 48v battery cable set at the bottom of the page, item #16 here > http://www.cartsunlimited.net/battery-cables.html |

Re: Going 48V...Need a shopping list!
ScottyB, do you recommend this charger over your DPI charger? Does this charger have a float or maintenance mode also? Also, with this battery cable set, I don't have to replace the cables to the motor or from the controller? since it only comes with 5 cables...thanks
