On a 48 volt ( 4 x 12 v) Club Car Golf Cart? Do I use the Pos/Neg post of the first battery OR the Pos of the first and the Neg post of the last?

My experience on a 48 volt system... I GUESSED and burned out a $265.00 control. Best to go to a SHOP & get it set up correctly. It's much cheaper.

the Pos+ post of # 1 battery and Neg-post of # 4 or last battery in the series. you will have no problems.

Hook the positive to the positive of the first battery, and the negative to the negative of the last (6th) battery. These terminals will have the supply voltage to the motor. When hooking these up, be sure the cap is on the end of the battery charger lead. Last week, I disconnected the charger and inadvertently dropped the end, without the cover onto one of the batteries in the middle of the cart. BIG SPARK!

You will hook it to the + and - that goes to the switches and - to the one that goes to ground. They will most likely be on different batteries. I don't know what you call the first or last battery. This little charger works GREAT. Duane

When attaching this model use the positive post of first battery and the negative of the last battery.

Connect the Positive to the first battery in the string and the negative to the last battery, I have six 8 volt batteries, some have four 12 Volt but the process is the same, this unit will tell you by the lights when it is correct in any event.

I had the techs from the battery company hook mine up when they replaced my batteries and they hooked it up to the positive on battery #1 and the neg on battery #4. I haven't used it yet but I will this summer when I leave Florida.

You use the Positive post of the first battery and the Negative Post of the last battery. The four 12 volt batteries are treated as though they are a single battery of 48 volts. Keep in mind that you will NOT be connecting to any of the jumpers between batteries.

I also have 6--8 volt batteries but the light kit I have (same as yours) works on 12 VDC. This is the reducer (48 VDC to 12 VDC) I bought for my Club Car. http://www.amazon.com/GOLF-CART-voltage-reducer-converter/dp/B008CM4WZ2/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pd_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=2BG1374SH88DY&coliid=IUHMYT3150ROT Works great at a reasonable price. I think you will have to copy and paste to reach the site.

No, this cigarette lighter Only uses 12 volts DC Power, I would think 48 volts would burn it up, If your golf cart has head lights, which run on 12 volt's you could find the ( hot ) positive lead to the head light switch and splice into it, to get your 12 volt lead for the lighter, and you can pick up the ground ( negative ) from any metal part on the golf cart, or run a ground wire back to any negative side of any battery, the body of this cigarette light is Not self grounding, I use it in both my Hot Rods as a power port for GPS or to charge my cell phone, lap top, exc. ( It works great ) I hope this info will help, Good Luck No, this cigarette lighter Only uses 12 volts DC Power, I would think 48 volts would burn it up, If your golf cart has head lights, which run on 12 volt's you could find the ( hot ) positive lead to the head light switch and splice into it, to get your 12 volt lead for the lighter, and you can pick up the ground ( negative ) from any metal part on the golf cart, or run a ground wire back to any negative side of any battery, the body of this cigarette light is Not self grounding, I use it in both my Hot Rods as a power port for GPS or to charge my cell phone, lap top, exc.

These are not the correct ones for a full size golf cart, 6 volts were needed not 12 volt batteries. These were about half the size of the ones that I needed for my club car.

I have used my device to desulphate six 6-volt golf cart batteries. I have connected the device from minimum to maximum voltage posts (nominally, 36 volts). I have 'treated' two different golf carts - at least 48 hours - up to about 72 hours per session. This procedure is somewhat subjective - but I believe that the device has substantially increased the useful service life of both battery packs on both golf carts (one battery, with a mechanical short, had to be replaced - this device will not repair a battery with mechanical shorts).

Complicated question. You need to figure out how much power your appliance use and how long you plan to use them each day. I am using 4 6 volt golf cart battery's. All together I have 464 amp hours. Batteries in parallel and in series. Do not use regular car battery. There is a formula out there, i don't know it.

I dont think so because the headlight is most likely 12 volt and the cart is 36. It is east to install and i really like knowing where my battery charge is at instead of guessing. I charge much less than I use too and I have never noticed that it had any drain on the batteries.

Place the negative and positive connectors where the onboard charger had connected their positive and negative terminals. I use solar panels to charge my golf cart so that is the reason I bought this item but it takes a long time to charge a 48V set of batteries.

I have a 48 volt e-z go golf cart and wanted to run lights on it for a fun night parade. each battery is 8 volts and there are 6 under the seat of the cart. So I hooked on to the positive of battery number one and the negative of battery number 3----making a 24 volt package---the inverter worked fine and ran my lights and boom box.

Im not really sure. What is your application. I use wet cell 6 volt golf cart batteries.

You need to determine if its 24 vdc or 12 vex. If its wired both pos. And both neg. Together its 12 vdc in parallel. If its wired straight though from one battery to the next pos. To neg its 24. You hook the pos. From your battery to the pos on the controller terminal with pic of the battery. And neg like wise. That should be it.

Check to see which two battery terminals are 48 volts on your battery pack. They will be the+ and - terminals with the cables that run to the charger port and the controller attached. When you hook the charger cables to the battery pack, make sure to hook the red clip to the positive+ post and black cable to the minus - post. Hope this helps. For best results leave it plugged into 110 outlet all the time you are not using the cart. This way your batteries are ready when you are. I love these things. I use them on all my carts.

The last two bars on the left should flash if your batteries are discharged (nearly dead). That is a warning to you to get off the golf course and get to a charger. There is some variation based on golf carts, batteries, etc., but it is a good warning.

Left side. Ist battery put pos end in first, repeat with 2nd battery on top of 1st, On other side do the opposite. Put neg end in first, repeat with 4th battery, Battery configuration form a "U" shape . With cap off you should see neg end on left and positive end on right With batteries on same configuration on each side. Make sure you align batteries with metal part in cap when screwing on. Wish I could draw a diagram

On my 1982 club car the first battery is on the passenger side there is a red wire connecting to positive battery and the last battery is on the drivers side with a black wire connecting to the negative post of the battery. And my meter works find.

The Meter is set to the voltage and isn't fussy about the brand of the golf cart. Just be sure order the correct voltage. After using this bar style. I still prefer the needle meter.

Yes, I use them with 4 x 12v batteries in series and they work fine. You would have no problem with 8 x 6v. They may be a little underpowered for a golf cart. Charging could take quite a while.
