Product Description
This 36V lithium golf cart battery set with 135 amp hours (Ah) capacity will help you play longer with twice the run time for your golf cart or electric vehicle with bluetooth connectivity for real-time battery performance monitoring. Dakota Lithium batteries typically last 4x longer than traditional golf cart batteries, providing exceptional lifetime value. Built out of our legendary lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) cells, these 36V golf cart batteries require no maintenance or watering, can be installed in any orientation, and can charge 5X faster than lead acid – giving you more time, and more freedom on and off the green. The best part is a set of Dakota Lithium batteries weigh 1/4 as much as a set of lead acid golf cart batteries, allowing you to cut 300 lbs or more off your cart. Experience better golf cart handling, less wear & tear, and lower maintenance costs. Drop in replacement for most 36V golf carts. LiFePO4 compatible charger required. Save 10% on X2Power or NOCO 3-Bank Chargers when bundled with battery set using option above.
This battery package combines 3 of our award winning 12V 135Ah DL+ dual purpose batteries in series to create a 36V system capable of 1,000 Cold Cranking Amps — more than enough power for most golf carts. Other brands of lithium batteries in the past have had issues with the battery shutting off because their golf cart needed more amps than the battery could provide. By using DL+ technology, this line of batteries provides both the high power needed for even the most rugged of golf carts. Built to endure with deep cycle lithium battery durability, backed by an 11 Year Warranty.

11 Year Warranty
Best in class, 11 year manufacturer defect warranty.
Storage Capacity
135Ah. Dakota Lithium batteries provide consistent power for all 135 amp hours. 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
38.4V (three 12.8V batteries to be wired in series). This set is intended for 36V applications (Dakota Lithium 12V batteries can be used in series up to 48V max).
Energy
1728Wh (135Ah) per battery.
Terminals
M8 size bolts. Includes a terminal adapter kit with automotive & marine posts that screw into the M8 bolt terminal, and M8 brass terminal bolts. Easy to adapt to different connection needs. Max torque 15 ft. lbs. Max 5 ft. lbs. on terminal post adapters.
Size
9.5” x 6.9” x 7.75” each (LxWxH) - Group 24. Drop in upgrade for lead acid golf cart batteries.
Weight
27.2 lbs per battery.
Lifecycles (Battery Lifespan)
Up to 80% capacity for 2,000 cycles in recommended conditions. 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 discharging temps (battery performs well down to -20°F). Equipped with an internal heater for charging below freezing.
Discharge
270A max continuous discharge, 1,000A max 2 second pulse, 900A max 5 sec pulse. 27V Max discharge, 33V Max recommended discharge. The flat discharge voltage curve provides 75% more usable capacity than a 135Ah SLA battery with the same CCA rating.
Motor Controller Limit
Compatible with motor controllers up to 400A and can handle up to 650 amps of in rush current. If you do not know how many amps your golf cart's motor uses than we recommend this 135Ah set to ensure you are happy with the range when consuming higher amperages. It is compatible with nearly all 36V golf cart motors on the market.
Charge
Recommend for longest life to charge at 70A or less (.5C), Max continuous 135A (1.5C). 14.4V recommended, 15V max per battery. BMS protection from over charging will cut off at 15V. These batteries must be charged using a LiFePO4 compatible charger. Save 10% on an X2Power 30A Automatic 3 Bank Charger or a NOCO 30A 3 Bank Charger/Maintainer when bundled with battery set using option above.
Multiple charging options are available with this battery set to suit your various needs. 10% discount on a charger when bundled with battery set using option above.
- X2Power 30A 3 Bank Automatic Charger - Fully automatic charging for optimal battery health and extended battery life.
- NOCO 30A 3 Bank Charger & Maintainer - Charges and maintains the batteries 24/7 for occasional use or off season storage.
Balancing
If these batteries will be charged individually with a multi bank charger, balancing will not be needed. If these will be charged in series at 36 volts, please review Dakota Lithium's Balancing Instructions.
Charging Time
To estimate the charging time required with different amperage chargers, see our How To Calculate Battery Charging Time article or use this Battery Charge Time Calculator.
Bluetooth Connectivity
Battery status and performance monitoring via the Dakota Lithium Power Gauge App. Easily access real-time data on your battery's voltage, state of charge, cycle count, and more. This advanced monitoring capability ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your battery by allowing you to track its health and usage over time.
Includes Active BMS Protection
Every Dakota Lithium battery contains a Battery Management System (BMS) that handles automatic cell balancing, low voltage cutoff, high voltage cutoff, short circuit protection and high temperature protection for increased performance and longer life.
Cold Weather Protection
Excellent performance and use down to -20°F.
Internal Even-Heat Technology
When charging these batteries in temperatures below 0°C/32°F, the internal heating elements will warm the cells to 0°C/32°F. This increases the lifespan, performance, and efficiency of the battery. Even-Heat technology allows for charging and using the battery in extreme temperatures down to -20°F.
