Allied is making a product that’s versatile and practical.

Allied Lithium Battery, the leading brand in golf car lithium batteries announced their 48 volt, 30AH battery that is ready to be installed into any E-Z-GO, Club Car, Yamaha, Star, Icon, or Polaris model golf cart. This new battery, designed by their engineering team at their headquarters in St. Louis, MO, is designed to be wired in parallel so the batteries voltage stays the same at 48 volts, but the amp hours (AH) are multiplied for every battery added. This versatile solution allows drivers to connect 2, 48 volt 30 amp hour (60AH) batteries all the way up to 6, 48 volt 30AH (180AH) batteries to convert your golf cart from lead acid to lithium.

After years of dealing with watering and taking care of acid leaking lead acid batteries, Allied Lithium Southeast Regional Sales Manager, Brett Clayton, says lithium is the best solution for anyone with a personal golf cart.

For vehicles left in storage either for long winters or snow birds leaving their car for months, lithium batteries only lose 3-5% of charge per month. Lead-Acid batteries will lose up to 33% of charge per month when not on the charger.

“For me, it’s about the reliability and performance. Our engineers have many years of experience in lithium technology. They work daily testing them in all the popular golf car makes and models to assure the end-user gets peak performance from the batteries. Each battery is less than half the weight of a traditional lead acid battery so you only need 2, 3, or 4 batteries compared to 6 or 8 lead acids. Total weight of the vehicle drops from nearly 400 lbs. to roughly 100 lbs. depending on the number of batteries you want or need. The engineers designed them to be customizable for the customer and for how long of a charge they want, or how fast they want to go. All while taking off that unnecessary weight that just puts more wear and tear on the golf cart.”
