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

51.2V (four 12.8V batteries to be wired in series). This set is intended for 48V applications. (Dakota Lithium 12V batteries can be used in series for up to 48V systems)

Energy

720 Watt-hours (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

9.5”L x 6.9”W x 7.44”H (242.5mm x 176mm x189mm) OR DL+ 12V 135Ah 9.5”L 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 (12.3 Kg) per battery for the 135Ah

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 operating temps (battery performs well down to -20°F). Avoid charging below 32°F.

Discharge

100A max continuous, 650A 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.

Motor Controller Limit

The 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 60 mile battery. It is compatible with nearly all golf cart motors on the market.

Charge

50A max, 14V.4V recommended, 15V max. Free 48V 8A 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. Avoid charging below 32°F. The DL+ batteries include a cold temperature charging protection cut off

Internal Heating

The DL+ 135Ah (60 mile set) has internal heating for charging in temperatures below 0°C/32°F. Optimal for winter warriors.

Charger Included

Free 48V 8A and 12V 10A LiFePO4 charger included. Dakota Lithium 48V batteries in series should be charged at 57.6 volts higher than AGM or lead acid. Lead acid chargers will work, but will only charge the battery to 80% of capacity.

Suitable for:

  • 48V Golf Carts #PlayLonger
  • Club Car 48V Golf Carts
  • Yamaha 48V Golf Carts
  • LiFePO4 Replacement for Golf Cart Batteries
  • Drop in Lithium Replacement
  • Excellent for 48V Taylor-Dunn Golf Carts
  • Preferred Upgrade for 48V Polaris Golf Carts

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.

Robert Rozzi

Best investment on my 2002 Club Car DS yet. I hated those lead batteries that lasted maybe 3 years
They required constant maintenance with water, are messy when they get old and drip and smells when they boil
Now I’m free from all that unhealthy nonsense!
The weight of the lead 6 batteries was 384 lbs. My new Dakota Lithium total weight for the 4 is 66 lbs!
No more water check or mess!
It took me about 1 hour to swap out the old cruddy batteries and used new wiring from Dakota
My test drive was incredible
It runs much faster
Thanks for making such a great product!

Fits in the original battery well of my 2020 club car. It has increased the speed and acceleration, I have been showing everyone I play golf with what a great setup the batteries are.

GREGORY SNYDER

Installation was easy. The batteries supply plenty of power and battery life is excellent. I am very happy with the Dakota Batteries and the great support that I got from your Sales and Tech Support teams. Thank you very much.

Works great for my golf cart!

Vincent Garrenton Jr

The overall quality performance of the Dakota Lithium batteries is only exceeded by the exemplary customer service provided!

Tom Haeder

Both the batteries and the support from Dakota Lithium have been excellent so far. I’m making a YouTube video of my installation into a Polaris Ranger EV (ATV).

Barry Ragland

So far I am very pleased with these batteries. It has really added power to my golf cart.

Shanna P.

Love, love, love these batteries. Super simple to install and very lightweight! I now have enough space under my seat to fit a whole cooler! Shipping was quick and instillation was a breeze and it with these my cart goes much faster! Best purchase I’ve made for my cart so far. With the 11 year warranty it will save me so much more in the long run!

Bruce H.
