Golf Cart Battery Care

[Smitty244]

I’ve posted a few questions on batteries but just wondering how everyone takes care of their batteries if the golf cart is going to sit unused for any period of time. Who knows if the thing will get used this year with campgrounds all down. I just bought it and it came with brand new Trojan batteries. I have the Club Car Charger and I also have a 48 volt Battery Tender. I was told the charger will automatically turn off and back on every 15 days or so?

you need to check the water in them at least once a month. then if needed fill with distilled water.

Ok but what is the best way to maintain charge, or is it safe to just let it sit

I would presume that charger that cycles every 15 days would be good, but who am I; I don't even own an electric car.

I put tenders on my boat batteries for the winter. My 48 volt iq cart I check the water and charge once a month. The 48 tender you have will get the job done too, as long as you check the water.

Keep water up and charged. Those are the two biggest killers of them expensive sum beaches
