G19E Has eight 6 volt batteries??
I came across a 2000 G19E cart today, and it had eight 6 volt batteries in it!!
Is this normal?? I haven't seen a yamaha before that had more than 6 batteries in it. I want to know if these came that way, or if someone did this ? I will probably install six 8 volt batteries for the guy, it will be alot cheaper. |

They even offered new ones that way as an option.

Re: G19E Has eight 6 volt batteries??

Re: G19E Has eight 6 volt batteries??
Ok, thanks for that info! The guy is not interested in run time, he is a snowbird and only uses the cart to go to the clubhouse. So, based on that, is there any reason ( other than accessories) why i shouldn't replace them with six 8 volt batteries??

Re: G19E Has eight 6 volt batteries??
I have never seen a G19 or G22 with 8x 6v batteries (excluding stretch special service vehicles). All our Ydre drives have had 8x 6v for some time now from the factory.

Re: G19E Has eight 6 volt batteries??
I was surprised when i saw it. The front six batteries are all lined up evenly in a single row, like normal. And the rear 2 batteries are turned 90 degrees and run right behind the row of 6.
This is a 2000 G19E |

Re: G19E Has eight 6 volt batteries??
Front 6 lined up in a row was a feature only common to a G22 in those days (with controller located in rear, above axle). G19 original configuration was closer to a Clubcar DS, with 3 pods of 2 batteries (with controller in the middle, under driver seat near F&r location on gas carts). Where is the controller located? I consider this thing an oddity, i would be looking for evidence of "homemade". I dont see how all these batteries fit, with the stock controller location under the seat.

Re: G19E Has eight 6 volt batteries??
CG, i will have to revisit this next week. I am suppose to install new batteries, so at this point, i will plan on installing 8 volt batteries. I will take pictures before i remove the old ones, and post them here.

Unless he needs the extra range, I would go with 6 x 8V to save the weight and expense.
