Overview

Built Dakota tough, this single 48V (volt) lithium battery will help you play longer with twice the run time for your golf cart or electric vehicle. while lasting 4x longer, providing exceptional lifetime value. Built out of our legendary lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) cells. this battery requires no maintenance or watering. Can be installed in any orientation, and can charge 5X faster then lead acid – giving you more time, and more freedom on and off the green. The best part is this single Dakota Lithium battery weighs 1/4 as much as a set of lead acid golf cart batteries, allowing you to cut 300 lbs or more off your cart. Experience better golf cart handling, less wear & tear, and lower maintenance costs. 40-60 mile range, depending on cart model and average cruising speed. Free 48V 8A LiFePO4 chargers included!

Suitable for:

  • 48V GOLF CARTS #PLAYLONGER
  • 48V REPLACEMENT BATTERY
  • CLUB CAR 48V GOLF CARTS
  • YAMAHA 48V GOLF CARTS

  • COMPATIBLE WITH MOST 48V GOLF CARTS
  • COMPATIBLE WITH 48V GEM CAR, STAR EV GOLF CART AND MANY OTHERS

SPECIFICATIONS

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

STORAGE CAPACITY 96 Ampere hours (Ah). Dakota Lithium batteries provide consistent power for all 96 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 48V (Dakota Lithium 12V batteries can be used in series for up to 48V systems)

ENERGY 4,608 Watt hours (Wh) per battery (4.6kWh power system)

TERMINALS F12 terminals (posts that screw in) with M8 terminal bolts included. Easy to adapt to different connection needs. (Max torque 15 ft. lbs.)

WEIGHT 77 lbs (35Kg). That’s 80% lighter than a set of lead acid batteries, saving 300 lbs. of weight.

SIZE 20.5″L x 10.5″W x 8.66″H (520mm x 267mm x 220mm)

BATTERY RANGE For carts with a max speed of 23 mph or less expect a battery range of 40 – 60 miles depending on cart model. For carts with a max speed of 27 mph expect a battery range of 30 – 40 miles. Wire 2 units in parallel to double the battery range.

LIFECYCLES (BATTERY LIFESPAN) Up to 100% capacity for 2,000 recharge cycles (100%DOD), 80% capacity at ≥4,000 recharge cycles (80%DOD), 50% capacity at ≥6,000 (50%DOD – battery half life). 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, 200A max pulse for 3-5 minutes. The flat discharge voltage curve provides a 75% bigger capacity then a SLA 100Ah battery.

CHARGE 50A max, 57.6V max recommended. Free 48V 8A LiFePO4 battery charger is included.

INCLUDES ACTIVE BMS PROTECTION Contains a circuit that handles cell balancing, low voltage cutoff, high voltage cutoff, short circuit protection and 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 (included w purchase).

CERTIFICATIONS All batteries are UN38 certified. Dakota Lithium’s cells are UL1642 certified and have been tested per IEC62133 standards. Meets all US & International regulations for air, ground, train, & marine transport.

CHARGER INCLUDED Free 48V 8A LiFePO4 charger included. Dakota Lithium 48V batteries 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. Upgrade to 48V 15A charger for 2X the charging time.

HOW MUCH POWER DO I NEED FOR MY GOLF CART? This single 48V battery will replace a set of 6V, 8V, or 12V batteries in a 48V cart. This battery is suitable for most carts with a max speed of less than 27 mph and a motor controller rated under 240 Amps. If your motor controller is rated 240 Amps or higher, you may need two of these 48V batteries in parallel (some dune buggies, off-road carts, ATVs, and high speed carts fall into this category).

Experience the Dakota Lithium Difference

The DL 48V 96Ah battery is built with Dakota Lithium’s legendary LiFePO4 cells. 2,000+ 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 half the weight.
