Re: 48 volt question
i don,t have the whole answer but C.C. started putting in 12 volt batteries a few years back and than after just a few years they went back to 8 volt batteries.........lots of complaints one would think......you get more years and more ride time with 8 volt batteries that much i know.............as for 8 volts being an upgrade on new carts this is the 1st time i have heard that but i don,t often see brand new carts......there are a few guys here who will know and i,m sure when they read this they,ll give an answer............................

Yea ... if you spec out a new one standard it comes with 4 - 12 volt batteries. For a 1-2 hundred you can get 6 - 8 volts.

Re: 48 volt question
A friend of mine that has been messing with CC's for many years said Six 8 volts are the way to go. He said Four 12 volt bats are too stressed. Fail sooner and don't have the mileage.
Probably has to do with haveing more "mass" and cooler operating temps. (if you think about it, 6 batteries have more cooling surface than 4. ) |

Re: 48 volt question
I just converted my 06 Precedent that had the 4-12 volt configuration to the 6-8 volt configuration. In talking to TahoeDawgZ71, I am pretty sure Club Car when back to the 6-8volt setup in mid-2008 or in their 2009 models as standard equipment.
