Upgrading gas-powered golf carts with electric battery-powered models is a proven hole-in-one investment for golf courses. Eliminating the noisy engines instantly betters the playing environment on the green while reducing the labor and expense of maintenance and upkeep that come with internal combustion engines.

The consensus was clear: Electrifying the fleet of golf carts was a win.

Despite the benefits, traditional battery solutions have their downsides on the links. Flooded lead acid batteries require weekly watering and maintenance for optimal performance. Furthermore, if they are improperly maintained or stored during the off-season, this could cost fleet owners significantly with additional battery replacements.

Such issues with lesser-designed systems can hide the truth about battery technology among skeptics. But that’s about to change.

Inventus Power’s new 48V PROTRXion™ High Discharge battery (S-48V60-TRX-HD) is designed to operate golf carts for the entire day — enough to complete 3 rounds of 18-hole golf — with sufficient power to move carts around the hilliest courses. This battery can be put to immediate use because it is compatible with existing lithium-ion or lead acid battery systems without the need to replace components.

 

What is the PROTRXion™ HD Series?

The core feature of S-48V60-TRX-HD battery is that it offers more power in a smaller package. This battery has 3.2kWh of energy and provides up to 20kW (26.8 hp) power in a single battery and manage a full day of golf on a single charge. For golf course managers, this means more productivity with zero maintenance.

Certified safe

With global certification, such as UL2271 for on-road and off-road vehicles, these batteries are proven to be safe and reliable. Now you can feel more confident than ever that the carts will do what they are supposed to do, so golfers can focus on what they came to do: enjoy their time on the course.

Less stress 

The S-48V60-TRX-HD offers fast, easy handling, without requiring a lift with installation. Lighter batteries also lighten the load on the golf cart’s power train and reduce tension on the cart tires, ultimately extending the amount of time between maintenance appointments. Over time, lighter batteries reduce maintenance costs for the fleet overall. Not to mention, less weight helps preserve the course.

Intelligent insights on battery life

Realtime data analytics on battery performance, life, and run time, allow for greater predictability so golfers and maintenance won’t get stranded in the middle of a course. Having these insights puts managers in complete control of their fleet. The S-48V60-TRX-HD battery can communicate its state of charge with existing monitoring systems on the vehicle. Inventus Power also offers a Smart Battery Monitor add-on device that can be installed on the cart.
