GENERAL INFORMATION
The batteries supplied with an electric Club Car vehicle are different from those supplied with an automobile.
The outward appearance of these two batteries is similar, but the operating characteristics are very different.
The Club Car electric vehicle battery is a deep-cycle battery, and the automotive battery is a “starting, lighting
and ignition” (SLI) battery. They should never be substituted for one another.
