Overview
Maximum Power for Golf Carts, EVs & Marine Applications
Built Dakota tough and engineered for maximum endurance, this 48V Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) battery delivers twice the run time, four times the lifespan, and five times faster charging compared to traditional lead-acid batteries. Designed for golf carts, electric vehicles, outboard motors, and solar energy storage, this high-performance battery eliminates maintenance, reduces weight, and enhances efficiency, making it the ultimate power upgrade.
Key Features:
- Unmatched Power & Longevity – 4X longer lifespan with up to 5,000 deep-cycle recharge cycles.
- Ultra-Lightweight Design – 1/4 the weight of lead-acid battery banks, cutting 300+ lbs from your cart or vehicle for better handling and efficiency.
- Faster Charging – Charges 5X faster than traditional lead-acid batteries, so you spend less time waiting and more time on the move.
- Versatile & Maintenance-Free – No watering required, can be installed in any orientation for hassle-free performance.
- Optimized for Deep-Cycle Applications – Nearly 5kWh of deep-cycle power for long-lasting, steady energy output.
- Industry-Leading 11-Year Warranty – Ensures reliable, long-term performance and exceptional lifetime value.
Ideal Applications:
- 48V Golf Carts – Twice the run time and improved handling with significantly reduced weight.
- Electric Vehicles (EVs) – More range, less maintenance, and longer lifespan than traditional batteries.
- Electric Outboard Motors – Steady, reliable power for extended water adventures.
- 48V Solar Energy Storage – Ideal for off-grid cabins, homes, and renewable energy systems.
- Any 48V Deep Cycle Application – Where consistent, long-lasting power is essential.
Recommended Accessories:
- 48V 8A LiFePO4 Charger (sold separately) for optimal charging and performance.
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 (not intended for wiring multiple batteries in series, 48V systems only)
Energy
4,915 Watt hours (Wh) per battery (4.6 kWh power system)
Terminals
M8 bolt size. 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
60A max, 57.6V recommended.
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
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.
ISO 9001:2015
Dakota Lithium is ISO Certified per 9001:2015 standards, and select models are produced in ISO 14001 certified facilities.
Recommended Charger
48V 8A LiFePO4 charger. (Sold Separate) 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).
How Much Power do I need for Solar Panels?
Each battery has 4.6 kWh of power storage. 48V has an efficiency advantage for solar energy systems (google 48V vs 12V for solar energy). 500 - 800 watts of solar panel capacity with a 48V solar charge controller would fully charge this battery daily.
