Cart Subtotal:
Gas golf carts have a distinct advantage over electrics in only a few ways. It's a pretty even street, to tell the truth, but being able to lift the seat and see how much gas is left is a significant advantage. If you raise your seat and tell how much charge is left, you have no business on this webpage. In fact, you should probably be doing superhero things. Even if you are one of those old-school folks who roll with a voltmeter in the glove box, that only tells you the voltage in the batteries, not how much charge is left. You need a Reliance Universal Digital Charge Meter.
A 48-volt golf cart overcharges to about 52 volts if the batteries are brand new. The caddie runs on that overcharge. At 47 volts, your coach will no longer run correctly. This is the range that this meter measures. This golf cart charge meter is universal to 48-volt carriages. As long as you have a place to mount it and enough wire to run to the batteries, you are good to go. Buggies Unlimited is waiting for your call.
Yes but your numbers will be sideways
The display is black and with a fully charged battery you will have a red bar on the right side of the display'
As the battery voltage starts to drop the red bar will start moving towards the left side of the display, If the red bar hits the ( o ) you have a dead battery
I ran two heavy 14 gauge wires from the voltage meter one positive and one negative directly two the batteries
to get a positive reading from the batteries with no voltage loss, Running a wire to the ignition switch is your choice.
I prefer not to.
You are most likely getting feed back on the negative wire. It is best to make sure that the negative wire to the meter is connected to the battery negative post. If you have connected to just any negative wire on the unit you can get feed back to meter. Hope this helps.
Yes
No but it's easy just hook up to main post and main beg. Then a small jump wire to keyswitch
