Default Re: 36v motor to a 48v cart?

Your ScottyB components should be all ready for 48 v. You’d have to confirm with him though.

You’ll need a new charger.

Ran it 18 holes
It did well, noticeable
torque improvement on
the hills
Getting to & from home/clubhouse
noticeable faster is nice too

A great improvement

May need a
New thread for the 85 DS upgrade,
Be making a list
top, upolstery, bumpers, tires /wheels ...

Convince the banker she needs a cart too :)
Is this how the “addiction “ starts ?

We support this upgrade from the start. All of the Alltrax controllers I send out are pre-set for 36-48 volt operation. All of the 400 solenoids will run on 36-48 volts.

We don’t have to replace the pre charge resistors?

In a series cart (SR controls included) the pre-charge resistor does need up-sizing from 250-470Ωs when going from 36 to 48 volts.
On the Alltrax XCT controllers the precharge is done internally and needs no modification. For all others the rule above applies

I didn't mean to hijack Golferdave's thread. When these batteries go out and I make the move to 48V, ScottyB is first on my list to contact before anything is hooked up just to make sure all is ready. Plus I'll have to buy that new charger anyway.

Took me a while to find one.
Got lucky, guy wanted the cart gone .
Not much on it is good,
It sat in sun for years
in So Cal desert,
all plastic & rubber is toast.
Some front end damage.
