Product Description
This 48V 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, while lasting 4x longer, providing exceptional lifetime value. Built out of our legendary lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) cells, these 48V 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 48V golf carts. A Dakota Lithium 48V 8A battery charger is included. Discounted options are available with this package to recharge in half the time with a 48V 15A fast charger, or for the ultimate in convenience, install an onboard battery charger.
This battery package combines 4 of our award winning 12 Volt 135Ah DL+ dual purpose batteries in series to create a 48V 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 automotive technology the DL+ 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
51.2V (four 12.8V batteries to be wired in series). This set is intended for 48V applications. Dakota Lithium 12V batteries can be used in series for up to 48V systems.
Energy
1728Wh 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
100A max continuous, 650A max pulse 10 second pulse, 1,000 CCA per battery (a single DL+ battery has the power to start your truck). The flat discharge voltage curve provides 75% more capacity than a comparable SLA battery.
Motor Speed Controller Limit
This 135Ah battery set is 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 48V golf cart motors on the market.
Charge
50A max, 57.6V max recommended, 60V max. A Dakota Lithium 48V 8A charger is included and a discounted upgrade to a 15A charger is optional to recharge in half the time. Discounted 4 bank onboard charger options are also available with this package.
Balancing
Lithium batteries must be balanced before connecting in series for optimal capacity and lifespan if being charged as a 48V set. Please review Dakota Lithium's Balancing Instructions. A 12V 10A charger is also included with this package in order to complete this process unless a multi-bank charger is selected. If batteries are charged individually, balancing is not required.
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 -20F°.
Charger Options
10% discount on chargers when bundled above with this battery.
- Dakota Lithium 48V 8A Charger- An economical option when overnight charging is acceptable.
- Dakota Lithium 48V 15A Charger - A great choice when time is critical to get recharged and get back to golfing.
- NOCO 4 Bank 40A Onboard Charger - Onboard waterproof charger convenience while keeping the battery set perfectly balanced with every charge.
