In need of golf cart batteries
The reason I use the U.S. battery 12v is because they have the largest amount of reserve power. 292 minutes at 25 amps. I am no expert, but I've had better luck with these holding up longer than any of the rest, and I've used them all.
Product Name:
US 12V XC2
Voltage:
12-Volt Deep Cycle – Sweeper/Scrubber, Multi-purpose
Data:
20 Hour Rate: 155
Minutes of Discharge @ 75 Amps: 77
Minutes of Discharge @ 25 Amps: 292
Length: 13 1/8” (333mm)
Width: 7 1/16” (179mm)
Height: 11 3/8” (289mm)
Additional Information:
U.S. Battery’s Flooded Lead Acid batteries are engineered and proven to provide the fastest cycle-up to full rated capacity, and have the highest total energy delivered over the life of the battery.
Building the best Flooded Lead Acid Battery on the market comes from a better battery cell design, hand-made construction, and attention to details.

Main reason is cause you gonna get tired before they do, I have only killed mine once. That was last summer when No and I fished Nader and nothing was happening so we loaded up and went to Enid. Not sure how many hours we were pulling but it was a long day that we managed to salvage at Enid. A lot of times I do just like I did this morning, unload and drop the troller and head out. Catch a good many fish around boat ramps.

Back to your original question since everyone is talking about 12V batteries, I have thought about the same thing as you since I bought my Cushman cart. 72V system running nine 8V batteries. The dealer I bought it from has plenty of 8V "seconds" for those that don't want to buy new. Check with the cart dealers. Love my cart and am glad I got it.

Yep.....You could just run 6, 12 volt cart batteries and you would have your 72 volts. On E-Z's cart....he could run just 4, 12 volt cart batteries and get his 48 volts. I am no expert but I think that would work unless there is a advantage using a larger number of batteries in 8 volt...only thing I can think of is maybe you would have more reserve amp hrs that way which would mean a longer run time.
I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.

Okay, makes sense why they are running the 8V batteries. Tremendous run time on my Cushman even under heavy loads.

If you change the battery pack from 8 volt to a 12 volt pack, be sure to change or program the charger. Most of the late model chargers are programmable to the pack.
