Specifications

11 Year Warranty

World beating, best in class, eleven year manufacturer defect warranty.

Storage Capacity

Choose 60 or 135 ampere hours (Ah). Dakota Lithium batteries provide consistent power for all 60 or 135 amp hours. DL LiFePO4 batteries have a flat voltage curve, which means they have a steady power output as the battery discharges. The power output will not dramatically drop like similar sized SLA batteries. You get all the juice down to the last drop.

Voltage

38.2V (three 12.8V batteries to be wired in series). This set is intended for 36V applications. (Dakota Lithium 12V batteries can be used in series up to 48V max)

Energy

768 or 1728 Watts (Wh) per battery

Terminals

F12 terminals (posts that screw in). Easy to adapt to different connection needs. (Max torque 15 ft. lbs.) (Max 5 ft. lbs. if using included terminal post adapters)

Size

60Ah is 9.5”L x 6.9”W x 7.44”H (242.5mm x 176mm x 189 mm) Group 24 equivalent OR 135Ah is 9.5L x 6.9”W x 7.75”H (242.5mm x 176mm x 197mm) Group 24 equivalent. BCI Group GC2

Weight

16.5 lbs (7.5 Kg). 65% lighter than a SLA or lead battery. OR 27.2 lbs (12.3Kg) per battery for the 135 Ah

Lifecycles (battery lifespan)

Up to 80% capacity for 2,000 cycles in recommended conditions. The typical SLA has 500 cycles. Dakota Lithium batteries last so long that the price per use is a fraction of traditional batteries.

Operating temperature

Ideal for rugged & harsh environments. Much better than SLA or other lithium’s. -20'F min, +120'F max optimal discharging temps (battery performs well down to -20'F). Charging 32'F to 120'F. (charge above freezing)

Discharge

100 A max continuous, 650 A max pulse 10 second pulse, 1,000 CCA per battery (a single DL+ battery has the power to start your car). The flat discharge voltage curve provides a 75% bigger capacity then a comparable SLA battery. For carts with a controller greater than 200 Amps the DL+ 135Ah is recommended. If unsure of how many amps your golf cart motor uses buy the DL+ 135Ah or install a 100 Amp fuse if using the DL+ 60Ah.

Motor Controller Limit

The 18-25 mile 60Ah battery is compatible with motor controllers up to 400A and can handle up to 650 Amps of in rush current. The 60 mile 135Ah battery has a 400 Amp max for the motor controller. If you do not know how many amps your golf cart's motor uses then we recommend the 50 mile 135Ah battery set. It is compatible with nearly all golf cart motors on the market.

Charge

50 A max, 14 V max recommended, 15 V max. Free 36v 8 amp LiFePO4 charger included. A SLA charger may work, but will reduce performance and lifespan of the battery.

Includes active BMS protection

Contains a circuit that handles cell balancing, low voltage cutoff, high voltage cutoff, short circuit protection and high temperature protection for increased performance and longer life. A LiFePO4 battery charger is required to turn the battery back on after a BMS cut off.

Cold weather protection

Excellent performance and use down to -20'F. Charing below freezing is not recommended. The DL+ batteries include a cold temperature charging protection cut off

Internal Heating for Winter Use

The DL+ 12V 135Ah battery set includes internal heating for charging when below 0C/32F. Excellent choice for winter warriors.

Charger Included

Free 36v 8 amp LiFePO4 charger included

  • 36V Golf Carts #PlayLonger

Experience the Dakota Lithium Difference

The DL+ 12V 60Ah dual purpose battery is built with Dakota Lithium's legendary LiFePO4 cells. 3,000+ recharge cycles (roughly 5 year lifespan at daily use) vs. 500 for other lithium batteries or lead acid. Optimal performance down to minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit (for winter warriors). Plus twice the power of lead-acid batteries at 1/3 the weight.

Easy to install and a good value.

Dennis

I have not need to charge the batteries, still going strong. The kit consisted of more than I expected.
Both type of battery post connections. Two charges one 12 Volt and one 36 Volt. A complete charging wiring system. Even grease for the connections.
The weight reduction was super.
No problem lifting the lithium batteries!I

Sales did a good job of answering my questions. I have a EZ-GO TXT, 36V cart. Removed lead acid batteries and put the Dakota batteries in. No problems! Performance good!
Also put in connector for onboard charger, a shunt to read
battery capacity remaining and a DC/DC converter for lights.

Steve Loney

Very simple to convert my golf cart to lithium. Once the batteries were charged, it took me less than hour.

Jon Majors

Great product, great service and shipping Access to instructions a articles. Excellent experience. The 43v charger and 14v charger is a real plus!!

Doug L.

Outstanding upgrade to my 2004 E-Z-Go TXT Golf Cart!! Great product and a really good price. Should be the last batteries I will need to purchase for this cart! Thanks very much!!

Douglas Newland

I replaced my 6 – 6 volt batteries with your 3 – 12 volt lithium Ion Batteries. I was impressed with the getup and go that my 87 EZGO golf cart had after I was done. Great product. Also, impressed that you sent two chargers. Thanks Douglas Newland R.L.A. Will try to send photo of setup.

John Y.

I use these batteries in my Golf cart. I use the golf cart for shopping in my neighborhood. I drive it almost daily and even those these are the smaller batteries. I rarely have to charge it once a week.

Douglas S.

The company was great about getting back to me when I had questions. When I bought the batteries were shipped quickly. The quality is impeccable. I put them in my 1996 ezgo golf cart and it works great. I couldn’t be happier. I would strongly recommend them. I have only had them a couple of weeks so I can’t speak on longevity, but I expect to be just as happy down the road.
