more power less weight

Replaced batteries in an old 36v Yamaha golf cart. I expect the batteries to outlast the cart but maybe the reduced weight will make it last longer.
I used straps to hold the batteries as their height meant that the original clamps couldn’t screw down far enough. After I finished I realized that I could have used a tap to get the clamps to work.

So far I am well pleased

Two years back, I purchased a 1998 TXT EZGO Golf Cart to be kept at our summer home in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It came with 6 (6v) Deep Cell Batteries in it. They were a bit old and by year two of use (not being able to store indoors and winter exposure to UP Michigan weather) the batteries lacked the power to go more than a couple miles per charge. I began researching replacement batteries about a year ago, and came across Dakota Lithium Batteries being advertised on Instagram and Facebook. Reviews were solid, but as with all lithium batteries, prices were also quite steep. After going back and forth comparing cost to value – I finally reached the decision to purchase the Dakota Lithium 36V Golf Cart Battery Set. When they arrived, it took me about half a day to get the old batteries out, things cleaned up, and the new batteries installed. Since these batteries are much smaller and lighter (seriously – it shaved over 350lbs off the golf cart), much of the installation process was taking out old heavy deep cell batteries, stripping out old wiring, and reinforcing the storage area so that I could strap down the new set to minimize their movement while in use. NOTE: you will need to charge each battery fully before hooking up into a series (took about 3 hours per battery for this first charge). Once installed, the difference was felt immediately! When I pressed on the pedal the acceleration was felt, throwing both my son and I back in the seat. We both laughed and gunned it, with less weight and the power of these batteries we were going faster than ever before. We ran back and forth to town (about 2.5 Miles round trip) five times over the week and never felt a loss of power/speed at anytime. I would’ve likely drove it to town at least two more times, but we were leaving as vacation was ending so I charged overnight and unplugged the next morning. In short, they are well worth the cost – we foresee us getting 10-11 more years of use out of this old golf cart and are excited to have our cart running better than ever.

Purchased these for my wife’s 36v golf cart. Replaced the old lead acid batteries that had to be replaced every two years. Works fantastic and lasts 4 times as long with regular use!

When I needed to replace my golf cart batteries this spring I reached out to Dakota Lithium. Their staff was extremely helpful and walked me through which option would be the best fit for my golf cart. I received the batteries shortly after placing my order and installed them into my golf cart. The installation process was very easy with the installation kit provided by Dakota Lithium. It has made an incredible different in weight and performance of my golf cart. I am very happy that I decided to switch to Lithium and would recommend Dakota Lithium to anyone looking to replace their batteries.

Unbelievable how long they go between charging!! I’m so happy with choosing Dakota lithium batteries! Its been a super easy….. only advice I can give is email them don’t call Email is faster. Extremely knowledgeable people will help you get exactly what you need the first time !!!

Replaced 500+ lbs of lead acid 6V batteries with this set and its awesome, faster, longer lasting and lighter!

Although the cost of the 3 batteries was high, after two rounds of golf they barely lost any power. My cart also goes faster.
