FAQ

Will this fit my Club Car? Match the bracket to your exact model, tray and controller layout before installation. Early Precedents and other Club Car platforms can require different mounting parts.

Do I need to reprogram my controller? No. Works with your factory Curtis 48V controller out of the box.

How long does installation take? Timing depends on battery removal, tray condition, charging/control wiring, gauge mounting and testing. Read the manual and check all delivered parts before scheduling the work.

Does it work in cold weather? Yes. Built-in heater activates automatically below 32°F — standard on every pack.

*Range estimates are maximums under ideal conditions (flat terrain, single rider, 12–15 mph, 70°F). Actual range varies with terrain, weight, speed, and temperature.

Will I need a step down converter for my lights and other accessories?

Fleet L.-.H.P.L.B.

Only if your cart does not already have a 48V-to-12V converter. Many carts already have one for the lights and accessories; if yours does not, we can supply the correct reducer.

Does it come with 12v accessory unit

Fleet L.-.H.P.L.B.

No, the 12V reducer is not included. Many Club Cars already have one for the lights and accessories; if yours does not, we can add the correct reducer to your order.
