I have Installed the DC House Metal case battery in over 50 golf carts and I could not be more pleased with it. The battery comes packaged well and is very easy to install. The run time also out performs many other 100 amp 48 volt batteries that I have installed. Great battery at a great cost!
I converted my 01 Club Car DS 48 volt to this DC House standard metal case 48 volt 100 amp package that came with the metal case and charger. Fast delivery and the customer service was outstanding, very communicative. It took some doing and I took my time and soooo glad I did this lead acid to a DC House lithium conversion. There are lots of videos out there on the web to help and if you have a DS beware there are a couple different models that were fitted with various equipment. I chose to mount my battery "between the frame rails" on some aluminum angle iron from the HD to help secure lateral movement for corning with the new lithium battery's pos/neg posts facing toward the rear as opposed to slapping it in there horizontally on top of and across the frame rails like some of the videos on YT depict. I wanted the lower center of gravity, more room under the seat to mount the charger and other accessories and easier access to the Battery On/Off Switch that a lateral instalition offers. I also got some sheet metal and cut some trays on the left and right sides where the old lead batteries 1 and 2 and 5 and 6 used to sit. In my opinion it just plain looks better too. In doing so, I completely removed the old Power Drive Charger's OBC (on board computer). I also relocated the Curtis 48V 400 A Controller under the seat on onto the new sheet metal tray. Yes, with the battery facing to the rear I had to buy a couple longer battery cables as the POS/NEG posts are facing to the rear. With the OBC completely removed I had to trick the Controller and complete a circuit by connecting a wire from the now unused OBC harness that is connected to the Controller but was otherwise was plug and play. Beware and don't dispart...there are at least two (2) versions of the OBC harness used by Club Car over the years. There are some videos that suggest "tying a blue and white harness wire" to complete the "jump" but my cart had a black, red and yellow in the harness. I finally found a video that suggested jumping the yellow harness wire to the - controller post. Worked for me but do this at your own risk. I also had to do some cutting in order to mount the battery laterally. Again, my version of the DS had an aluminum wall that ran horizontally across the back side of the battery compartment and to which the solenoid, the OBC and Controller were OEM attached. I got out the saw-saz and cut a portion of that aluminum panel out just wide and tall enough for the DC House battery to slide in and far enough back. Yes, I also had to remove just a portion of the fiberglass body too. I left part of that horizontal panel as I did not need to and thus, the solonoid was not moved. Oh, I also deleted the OEM charger port and added a new 120 volt style port for the new DC House charger available on Amazon. In that my 2001 DS cart has 12 volt headlights, blinkers and such I also purchased the DC House 48 volt to 12 volt voltage reducer, mounted under the seat compartment and connected the OEM fuse block to the reducer. In sum, Wow! Not entirely plug and play but I made my conversion more of a project because, well, that's who I am. :) The cart has so much more torque, and way more peppy. Hope this helps. Thank you DC House!!
I wanted to do a review of my DC House 51.2V 50AH Lithium Battery upgrade. Mostly to help others. I have a 2013 TXT 48V golf cart that we use here on the ranch for chores etc. We don’t take it to do 18 holes of golf and our terrain is rough. We have 2 golf carts that are pretty close to the same, one is a 2019 the other 2013.
The 2019 has a RoyPow 50AH lithium kit. The 2013 had (6) Trojan 8V batteries. I recently replaced 1 battery that was showing 6v and that solved the problem for about 2 weeks then another dropped to 6v. So I decided it was time. I was able to install the kit in a couple hours and BAM! My cart is back.
Here are some key things about my install. First it was easy to do the right way. You will need a couple of things that do not come in the kit. Order a set of 4-6' 4AWG battery cables and order a Universal lithium battery mounting bracket. There are several on the market, I went with the BOLT Energy Universal brackets. Other than that the kit is complete and the power and speed is great. The Bluetooth built in monitor is cool, lets you see the battery status on your cell phone. The dashboard monitor that comes with the kit is cool too.
Very happy with this battery and my 36V EZGO golf cart. Lithium swap was fairly easy and straightforward. I like the built-in on /off button and appreciate the lightweight. I wish the temperature reading could be changed to Fahrenheit from Celsius. The gauge that came with it is easy to read but would be nice to be able to view it on my phone at the same time. Product support answered my questions promptly. Overall very good experience and a great price on a package.
Installed the DC house 48 100ah metal case battery and charger into my 2016 club car precedent super easy install after I did some research online was pretty much a plug and play install super impressed with longevity I'm getting over a week of daily normal use approximately 50 miles between charging definitely gonna sell these to family and friends in my community we are a golf cart community
Easy installation! Pretty much plug and play only had to modify my platform to put battery on just because of its layout not the battery. So far I’ve done about 10 miles on flat land and my battery is only at 71%. The power response/speed and obviously battery life is excellent so far. Along with losing 300 something lbs from removing the lead acid batteries I couldn’t be happier. Make sure you also order the 36v to 12v down converter you have to have it to run your 12v electronics. If you’re converting acid to lithium be sure you don’t remove the reed switch like I did or you’ll be scratching your head wondering why the cart won’t move (reed switch is in the old charger wiring, red wire) YouTube videos have more info.
Got a deal on one from DCHOUSE, and recently used it on a camping trip. Not really convenient for that, but I needed an inverter and with a 48v battery, this will theoretically run everything I use, and more, when camping.
I didn't put a significant load on it, but did charge the DCHOUSE 48V battery I received, and it did a good job charging. Just left it connected to the battery and watched as the cells balanced. Then used it to power some led lights and diesel heater for four days (intermittent).
Interestingly, when connected to the battery and the inverter was on (but no load), I saw no draw on the battery app. I left the inverter on for the entire trip, and drained right at 10% from the battery. Not bad at all for the heater running at least 40 hours, inverter on non-stop, and minimal load from a 50 light LED string.
Now have the battery and inverter in the house next to the propane fireplace so it can be used for heat in event of power outage.
Pictured is the inverter with a steel plate I cut and bent to bolt to it, that will power 12v items like phone chargers. Cheapy components (breaker, fuse panel, 48v to 12v step down converter) and USB ports.
Battery worked great. My golf cart is faster because of the reduced weight and non acid drama. Only complaint is the battery has no brackets or any way to tie down or secure in place. Have to improvise or make your own hold down points. Over very good buy!!!
If you own a Ryobi Mower then you probably know that the batteries in them are not the best. I bought this 1 battery for my 480e mower replacing the 4 lead batteries. Great product and easy to install. I know it’s cliche to say but if I can do it so can you. I’m not much of a handyman in any field. There is a 3 year warranty and the customer service is top notch, I asked a couple of questions and got a fast reply for both. Thank You DCHOUSE!
By the way if you take your 4 crappy ryobi batteries to Oreillys for recycling they will give you a $40 store credit. Call first it might not be the same in all states.
Just amazing!
Replaced 5 year old lead acid batteries. There are two good batteries and one weak 39% capacity battery, with the 4th totally unresponsive.
This is in a Ryobi riding mower.
It cuts a lot of 1.6 acres in area. Interesting is the battery SOC is still at 90% after 2 sessions of mowing.
Must be something to the 200ah continuous energy. At this rate, at least 12 more mowing sessions before necessary recharge the Besst
It's only been a couple of weeks, so I'm still unsure about longevity.
However; even with the factory battery tray of our Club Car this battery fit perfectly in the passengers side of the tray; without met putting any fixture screws in yet.
The charger is any and convenient without having to make any modifications.
I have not yet put the thing on the dash that tells you the status of the battery, so I cant really comment on that, but it's a very cool addition.
Installed the100ah battery to replace four lead acid ones. New battery is 10x better. Its power output for uphill and sustained speed is night and day difference. Already had upgraded controlled, solenoid, and cables. Just added a 48 to 12v converter for cheap and a fuse box to add more 12v accessories. Phone Bluetooth app works great for Bluetooth power levels.
I just finished installation of a DCHouse 48V 100Ah LiFePO4 Bluetooth Deep Cycle Battery into a 2019 CC Carry All 500. I removed eight 6V Trojans and spent hours cleaning up the corrosion, etc.. Anyway, the CC is a complicated beast and I had to do a lot of engineering to get everything perfect. Anyway, the battery is just incredible, a fraction of the weight of the old batts and all the power. Just great.
That said, the battery has no hold-down means—no lip, no ledge, no mount points, etc.. I wound up using straps.
There is no interlock signal from the charger. I wound up fabricating one of those.
Well packaged. Two different orders both arrived quickly with no issues.Usb-c port is very handy as it is both charge and discharge.I also like the app with all the details it shares. It would be nice if it displayed state of charge on the main screen without having to pull up the battery sub menu.The quality seems good and does not feel cheap or junky from appearances. The carry strap is sufficient and the battery is surprisingly light compared to a traditional lead acid of similar capacity.I have not tested out anything in details but initial impressions are good and both batteries arrived in similar soc with balanced cells.
Update: I have three of these batteries. I am using it as a 150Ah 48V nominal ESS. The included UART display is a nice must have item to compare against the Victron Energy shunt reading on state of charge. Voltage and current readings do seem to be accurate enough as I have been using these batteries every day since the original purchase. These come with a three year warranty and I use a Victron MPPT controller to smart Lithium settings. Also, with almost all LiFePO4 you should have a smart charger on hand in case you accidently go too low on the charge state.
I see a lot of packs state that they are rated for Carts and really are not. I would say that this one i would initially say is close to failing, Perk, the inside is clean and tidy. The unit's complete specs are not listed on the site but it does come on an included card after the fact so I figured I would share it with any consumer potentially thinking about this pack. Overall I have no real complaints, the pack housing is sturdy but I am not sure if it will rust over time being on the cart, I guess we will find out. I put a single 50Ah pack on my 2004 Club Car DS golfcart just to see if I would trip the BMS, start up acceleration with WOT; no issue, driving; no issue, I kept Wide open throttle down to under 10s to avoid the 200A max discharge from faulting. These packs did breathe new life into my cart. I do not know how long the pack is good for yet or how the BMS will handle a large hill, but before trying 18 holes or going up an extended incline, I plan on putting a second unit in series on the cart.. For the price, most of the solar DIYers seemed quite impressed with the internals besides the BMS.So does it work in a cart? I installed the second pack and charged the unit up. It handled 18 holes with no problem, my golfing partner was extremely surprised at the pickup and how well it did. I am very happy with the conversion and if this holds up to over 6 years of use then it is almost half the cost of running lead acid packs. They are a little wide for a cart but they are short and allow me to locate them centrally and keep the centre of gravity right in the middle where it should be.I have now had the units for a few months in the cart and have not had a single issue with them other than they like to shift in the battery compartment. The only downside to these cases is that there are no tie down or securing positions on the boxes and a HD rubber securing strap does not keep them square on hard turns, I will have to figure something more substantial out on this.
Why did you pick this product vs others?:Very easy installation so far so good's been working great gave me almost 10 miles an hour more speed on my golf cart.
A housing site I help run uses 10 EZGO TXT48 carts for housekeeping and maintenance personnel use. After 5 years of steady all day service southwest US heat, the 8volt Trojans are beginning to loose capacity and use a lot of water to stay charged. So I tried a LiFePO4 100Ah conversion on one cart and loved it! Cart only used about 10% of charge after a day's use so the next 3 carts I converted to the 50Ah DCHOUSE LiFePO4 batteries to save on the budget. They run excellently and stay above 75-80% after a day's use, maybe 5-6miles? These EZGO's are at standard speed setting and the lighter weight makes them lively. I love getting away from lead acids! I bolt a 23"x23"x5/8" piece of plywood in where the battery pack sits and then have something to secure the LiFePO4 pack and charger to with room to spare on the sides. No more monthly battery cleanings and waterings and fighting corrosion on the cables (the bumpy dirt and gravel the carts travel over slosh acid ridiculously). Thanks for coming out with the mini 51v cart battery it is wonderful :-)
Update: The seller contacted me and offered me to return for full refund or keep it for a 10% discount for my troubles. The battery is working like a ��Boss�� now that I got it installed.This wasn��t an easy replacement. I had to grind off 1/4�� off seat spring bracket. Bend bracket holding electrical items. Had to cut the corners off the battery mounting flange on the end opposite the connections. The electrical lugs had to be replaced with larger ones 5/8�� holes for mounting bolts. If this hadn��t worked I probably wouldn��t been able to return battery due to modifications.
I ordered the DC HOUSE 48V 50Ah LiFePO4 after nearly a half-year of reading up on and following groups that had done the conversion in their mowers. I own a Ryobi RM480e that I bought in 2020. I have just under 3/4 Acre and after a few years, the OEM batteries would die earlier and make mowing become a multi-day event when they would die half way through. Finally last year I could only mow for a minute or two before the blades shut off. That is when I discovered their were several communities dedicated to helping do the conversion to LiFePO4. After seeing DC House brand be continually recommended, I decided to pull the trigger when they had a sale.Initially I ran into some issues with my battery with the BMS and smart meter. I was concerned I made a bad decision, but many people in the community informed me to contact DC House support.DC House support contacted me in the comments of that post and their support team responded promptly when I emailed them. They assisted me with troubleshooting, sending me a replacement meter and ultimately sent me a brand new replacement battery that is working without issue. My Ryobi RM480e now weighs considerably less with with the LifePO4 installed and it size and fit worked out perfectly in the battery tray. I used some straps to secure it in place.After mowing 3/4 of an acre with varying inclines and grading, I can complete the mowing with around 40% battery remaining. This battery helped me revive the mower that I thought was done for.I cannot speak highly enough about the customer support team's handling of my issue and how they assisted and kept me informed during my issue. It is not just the product you are buying, but the company that stands behind their products and makes it right if there is ever an issue. I will definitely do business with DC House again if I need another battery.
I bought two of these 48v 50ah batteries and they appear to suit my needs well. I'll only ever pull around 1200w/25A max from either battery at any given time and I'd imagine that won't be an issue. I didn't do any load testing, only capacity testing. I did connect them up to the PV input on my Solix battery generator and it literally right up to 1150w of charging with no discernable heat from these batteries.Full state of charge appears to be capped at 56v by BMS, low voltage cutoff is around 40.5 or 40.6.I ran 100w load with a basic battery tester and set my own low voltage cutoff at 40.4 since the battery claims a cutoff of 40v. Internal BMS shut me off at about 40.6v. I pulled a little over 54.5ah from it draining from 56v to 40.6. I double checked with a couple multimeters including a Fluke multimeter because the voltages didnt exactly match what is listed.I'm a little thrown off by the numbers as I'm not big into batteries or power storage. I was under the impression this would be at ~58.5v before full state of charge and expected the BMS would shut off at 40v. It still discharged almost 10% more capacity than rated within an acceptable voltage for my use case. So I'm overall very satisfied.I don't have other 48v batteries to compare to, but when I stack 4x 12v lifepo4 batteries I hit 58v that I expected to see here with the same meters.I wouldn't recommend stacking these with other manufacturers in parallel due to the voltage discrepancies I'm seeing, but either way, these will do what I need in my isolated system.The shipping boxes are heavy duty and the packaging materials are great. The outside of one of the shipping boxes was absolutely beat and the battery itself was still perfect without a scratch or dent.
Hope this review helps others. Easy to install you basically just remove the rusty old heavy batteries and place this back in. Keep track of your red and black wires. Fully charged in about 5 hours and would guess it has about 15 - 20 range. Lighter and a bit faster. All this and comes in cheaper than replacing with less acid you will only get 3 years out of! It did come in separate packages a few days apart so just be mindful of that. Highly recommend.
Did a lot of research & went with DC HOUSE!Anybody fixing to replace their old standard lead acid batteries for their EZGO golf cart should replace with LiFePO4 battery!!!Their lifespan is longer, the golf cart is faster, there's no maintenance and needs A LOT LESS CHARGING. ??The battery is light (only 62lbs) compared to 6 batteries at 348lbs.Installation was very easy!... which I also mounted the charger under the seat (see pic)In addition to all the advantages of this battery... I SAVED $383 switching to DC House's LiFePO4 battery vs Trojan's standard 6V lead acid batteries!!!!!The worst thing I can honestly say about this... is the monitor. It's not set up to be mounted on a golf cart BUT since the battery &charger are Bluetooth and with the DC HOUSE app, you really don't need the monitor.
