Our new ProVolt lithium battery is the newest addition to our wide range of golf cart batteries for sale, and like other lithium batteries, is designed to replace a system of lead-acid batteries. Upgrading to a lithium battery provides several different benefits, including a longer driving range, shorter charging time, a longer battery lifespan, no maintenance, and less weight on the golf cart. Read our blog all about the benefits of lithium batteries here: The Benefits of Switching to a Lithium Battery.

The ProVolt lithium battery has two sizes – 105AH, best for 4 passenger golf carts, and 176AH, recommended for 6 passenger golf carts. Our ProVolt battery kit comes with everything necessary to convert a 48V golf cart, including the battery, charger, mounting brackets, and adaptor. The ProVolt charger is automatic and is designed to shut off when charging is complete, and charges at a rate of 25amp. A ProVolt lithium battery is also significantly lighter than a system of lead-acid batteries, weighing under 200 pounds. Because only one is needed as opposed to multiple 6V, 8V, or 12V lead-acid batteries, the less weight on the golf cart improves performance, speed, and can even increase the overall life of the golf cart. All ProVolt batteries have a digital state of charge meter built into the top of the case, which can switch from voltage to percent of charge, as well as a duplicate remote meter which can be mounted on the dash. ProVolt batteries also have the ability to communicate by Bluetooth to an Android phone with an app that will soon be available in the Android Play store. Apple products will also be supported as well in the near future.

Our last blog was all about our newly introduced 
We’ve been carrying the Bintelli Beyond and Bintelli Nemesis golf carts for a while in our Riviera Beach location, with several different body styles available: 4 and 6 passenger carts, both lifted and nonlifted, are displayed and available for purchase at our massive main location in Riviera Beach. With each cart coming fully loaded with a multitude of accessories, our fleet of Bintelli golf carts are premium, high-end carts that are truly like no other. Bintelli Beyond carts come complete with an AC motor, LED lighting, a backup camera, a Bluetooth sound system, a color-matched extended roof, a rear set that can be flipped and turned into a flatbed-like surface for transporting materials, two-toned premium seats, hydraulic disk brakes, head lights and tail lights, dual USB plugs, an onboard smart charger, turn signals, DOT 3-point seat belts, a DOT windshield with powerful wipers, and DOT tires. Standard models have 14 inch wheels, and lifted models have 23 inch tires. The Bintelli Nemesis has all of the same features except for the Bluetooth sound system, and includes a flip seat with cupholders with drop-in cooler.
Bintelli carts are street ready with all the safety features – head lights and tail lights, brake lights, turn signals, seat belts, horn, and windshield wipers – that enable them to be registered as low speed vehicles (LSVs), which would license them for street use on any public roads with a posted speed limit of 35 mph or less. Their maximum forward speed is approximately 20-25 mph, and depending on the type of cart and battery, their running distance can reach between 30-40 miles, with the option of upgrading to a longer range battery for an additional fee.
Most golf cart chargers use a 3-stage charging algorithm, consisting of a bulk charge stage, absorption charge stage, and finish charge stage. This algorithm determines how much power returns to the battery at various intervals, in order to make sure it is not undercharged or overcharged. During the bulk charge stage, about 80% of the discharged battery power will be recharged, usually taking around 4-8 hours depending on how low the battery charge was. The second stage, the absorption charge stage, the charge current slowly decreases until the 100% of the discharged battery power is recharged – however, this does not mean the battery is fully recharged. The final stage, the finish charge stage, slightly and safely overcharges the battery to account for efficiency losses. When using the right size charger, the battery is safely overcharged without damage.
When charging lead-acid golf cart batteries, it’s important to do it in a well-ventilated area. One of our recommendations is also to lift up the seat that covers the batteries – in 4 passenger carts, they are most often under the front 2 seats, and 6 passenger carts mostly have them under the middle row of seats – either before or directly after plugging in the charger. This is because when a lead-acid battery system is plugged in, as it begins charging, it can release hazardous fumes from the chemicals inside the batteries. Build-up of these fumes under the seats can be dangerous, so to avoid this, either leave the seat up as the batteries charge, or lift the seat and allow any possible fumes to clear out and ventilate before putting the seat back down.
