Re: New Trojans don't seem to pull the plum quick motor
Welcome to BGW!
Sounds like you have a '97 DCS. New batteries need to be broken in before they achieve their maximum storage capacity, so that might be a contributing factor. Here is how to break then in. http://www.cartsunlimited.net/Batter...n_Methods.html T-605 only have 210AH and the stock batteries (T-105) have 225AH. That is a contributing factor. A DCS carts had ten 6Ga high current cables and you have only upgraded seven of them to 4Ga. That is a contributing factor. Are you running a stock controller? What is the tire height? --------- When properly set up, a DCS is a speedy cart with a lot of torque. |

Re: New Trojans don't seem to pull the plum quick motor
If you use a 400 amp control and HD solenoid this cart should go about 20mph & exhibit some speed and torque getting there on the stock motor. See our controller pkg # 505.
Also call the battery shop and tell them your not happy with performance, & ask if you can exchange the batteries for T105. Most shops will oblige. |

Re: New Trojans don't seem to pull the plum quick motor
Ok I just switched my batteries for the 105s trying to find the other three wires now trying to avoid the controller issue for now. But what controller should I get when we are ready?

Re: New Trojans don't seem to pull the plum quick motor
You will need to upgrade the solenoid also.
Check out the 505DCS and 606DCS packages about halfway down this webpage: http://www.cartsunlimited.net/Custom_Options.html Also, read the text at the top of that webpage. Lots of good info on upgrading the drive system. |
