Frequently Asked Questions

Most Bolt Energy USA lithium golf cart batteries deliver about 30–50 miles per charge. Actual range varies.

What affects range?

• Battery capacity and health
• Terrain and hills
• Speed and driving style
• Total load (passengers/cargo)

For a quick estimate, use our tool: BOLT ENERGY USA DISTANCE CALCULATOR. Additionally, keeping tires inflated and driving at steady speeds helps extend range.

With normal use, our LiFePO4 packs are designed for ~3,000 cycles and often last 10+ years.

How to maximize cycle life

• Avoid deep discharges when possible
• Use a lithium-compatible charger
• Store at ~50–60% if not used for months

As a result, consistent care turns into longer service and lower total cost of ownership.

Purchase through an approved dealer. Therefore, you’ll get proper sizing, setup, and support.

• Find a Dealer

Yes. Bolt Energy USA lithium batteries include a 10-year warranty against manufacturing defects (from ship date or invoice date).

Moreover, your dealer can help file claims if needed.

Shipping time depends on order size, destination, and payment timing. Your dealer will provide an ETA at checkout. Meanwhile, you’ll receive tracking once the order ships.

Yes—Monday to Friday, 9am–5pm ET. For fastest help, email support@boltenergyusa.com. Messages sent on weekends are answered on the next business day.

Our lithium batteries are compatible with most major brands. Always confirm voltage and tray fit before purchase.

Commonly supported brands

Advanced EV, Bad Boy Buggy, Bintelli, Club Car (DS/Precedent), Coleman, EZGO (TXT/RXV/Elite), Evolution, EPIC, GEM Cars, ICON, Kandi, Madjax X-Series, Navitas Storm, Nivel X-Series, Titan, Tomberlin, Trojan EV, Vivid, Yamaha.

Additionally, modified carts may need a specific capacity or bracket kit. Your dealer can advise.

No returns on electrical parts. However, warranty issues are handled per our terms—repair or replacement when eligible.

With proper use, expect 10+ years. Furthermore, good charging habits and sensible storage can extend life even more.

LiFePO4 batteries move lithium ions between the cathode (+) and anode (−) through an electrolyte. During charging, energy is stored; during use, electrons power the motor.

Built-in protections

• Overcharge prevention
• Temperature monitoring
• Cell balancing

Consequently, the pack stays stable and efficient under normal conditions.

We engineer around LiFePO4 for safety, long life, and reliable output.

Why it matters

• High energy density and steady power
• Rigorous QC on critical components
• Designs tailored for golf carts (range, durability)
• Dedicated support and a strong 10-year warranty

Therefore, you get performance you can trust—day after day.

Our BMS helps prevent both. Even so, best practice is to use a lithium-compatible charger and avoid repeated deep discharges.

Maintenance-free. No watering or equalize charges required.

Simple checks

• Clean terminals if needed
• Verify secure cabling and mounting
• Update firmware when advised by support

As a result, upkeep is minimal compared to lead-acid.

Yes. Lithium batteries should be recycled at an approved facility.

Next steps

• Check local recycling programs
• Ask your dealer for drop-off options

This keeps valuable materials in use and reduces waste.

Generally, yes. LiFePO4 chemistry is stable and avoids acid spills.

Safety basics

• Use the correct charger
• Follow temperature guidelines
• Secure the pack to prevent vibration

Additionally, always follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

Match system voltage and choose capacity based on your typical range and load.

Quick sizing tips

• Confirm 36V, 48V, or 72V
• Consider passengers, terrain, and accessories
• Ask your dealer for a recommendation

Consequently, you’ll get the right balance of range and cost.

Yes—if the charger is designed for lithium and stops at full charge. In addition, avoid repeatedly charging in extreme heat or cold.

At a glance

• Weight: Lithium is much lighter
• Life: Lithium lasts longer (cycles and years)
• Maintenance: Lead-acid needs watering; lithium does not
• Charging: Lithium charges faster and more efficiently
• Environment: Lithium avoids acid spills and reduces hazardous waste

Therefore, lithium lowers hassle and total cost over time.

The Battery Management System (BMS) protects the pack and balances cells.

What the BMS does

• Guards voltage and temperature
• Prevents overcharge and over-discharge
• Optimizes performance and life

Because of this, your battery remains safe and dependable.

Store in a cool, dry place, out of direct sun.

Long-term storage

• Charge to ~50–60%
• Top up every few months
• Keep away from freezing/very hot areas

Thus, capacity stays healthy while the cart is idle.
