Couple of Clubcar questions

[fabricator]

Picked up 2 carts with out batteries.
Would someone post a picture of the battery configuration please.
I am assuming that these take 6-8v batteries?
Any help is appreciated.

That picture you posted is a battery box for a 4x12v battery arrangement.
It can be modified to use a 6x8v arrangement. The 6x8v pack will have a higher capacity which allows more energy output for higher power motors, and will give a longer run time than a 4x12 setup.
This post goes into a lot of detail, but the basic modification is simple.

If you are just flipping them, the 4x12 is fine. I had 2 of them and lasted for years until I converted to Lithium. The 6x8 is a longer A/H configuration, but not a big difference if this is just to resale.

Yeah I was sorta thinking the same thing. He got 2 of them. FT is right but I would not convert them to sell them.

Well crap. I’ve got 6-8v batteries thinking that is what it needs.
Anyway I will probably unload them as is.
Iffin they are around here too long I will convert to 6-8v.
Thanks for the link and the help to all.

i don't know what you paid for them. But Iffn you want to sell them you will make a lot more money Iffn they have batteries and running.

Yeah, no one pays much for a non-running electric. It is too risky....
