    Thanks! I have a 2010 Precedent 48v and just purchased the 48v 2x Eagle kit. Received the kit yesterday and had it all installed but wasn’t sure what to do with the old charge port and wires. Thanks for the detailed description!

    Great video.
    Can you please do a video on how to add a 12volt reducer to power headlights. I’m about to purchase the 48V Badger Big Battery kit and that’s the one thing I’m confused about in the process.
    Thanks so much.

    • @kartkrazy
      @kartkrazy  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I really like the falcon elite kit but if you need long range, you might want the double Eagle kit… would probably give you 10 to 15 more miles per charge

    What is the mileage from the 60AH eagle kit. 2015 Precedent, plum quick bandit motor, Navitas 440/600 controller, 23x14 wheels 6” lift. Haven’t ordered batteries yet. Debating between the 60AH Eagle and the 96AH Badger 2.

    • @kartkrazy
      @kartkrazy  ปีที่แล้ว

      Lots of variables… what type of terrain, driving habits, how many passengers on the cart, etc. Personally I get around 20-30 on a stock cart, 1-2 passengers, hilly terrain, driving like an old lady.

      A Precedent is DC. In order to make it AC you would have to do an DC to AC conversion kit…replacing both the controller and the motor.

      Not sure why that would happen with the OBC unplugged. At that point it’s basically not existent and has nothing to do with the aftermarket battery and charger. Been doing it this way for years without a problem.

    Big Battery, where the customer is always wrong
    1) Expect a Dead on Arrival (DOA) unit with a manufactured date of 11/20
    2) Plan for nine business days where you contact big battery every day to resolve the issue and they may or may not respond
    3) If they respond, make sure to set aside a lot of time to explain to Big Battery what a customer friendly process is for handing a DOA unit
    4) Prepare to dispute the refund with Big Battery as they want to charge you a 20% restocking fee as well as $400 for the shipping for a DOA unit.
    5) Make sure you have a good credit card company.
