Club Car POWERDRIVE 3 48V/13A Battery Charger

Details:

• The PowerDrive 3 Batter Charger functions as an integral part of Club Car's Excel, IQ, PowerDrive and PowerDrive Plus electrical systems. Because the charger is controlled by the vehicle onboard computer, it will work with only Excel System, IQ Systems, PowerDrive and PowerDriver Plus electric vehicles. The charger is automatic and has no external controls. When the charger is connected, there is a 2 to 15 second delay before charging begins.

• The on-board computer, having recorded the amount of energy consumed as the vehicle was used, directs the charger to replace exactly the amount of energy needed to fully replenish the batteries. The charger then shuts off automatically, preventing the possibility of either undercharging or overcharging. The computer accomplishes this by detecting when the exact amount of energy necessary has been returned to the batteries. 

Features:

• Charge Interlock

PowerDrive 3 battery charger DC plugs have three pins rather than two blades common on most standard charger plugs. Two of these pins are the positive and negative leads as on standard chargers; the third pin is a sensing lead that is the communication link between the charger and the on-board computer. When the charger plug is plugged into the vehicle receptacle, the on-board computer locks out the vehicle drive system. This prevents the possibility of driving the vehicle while the charger is plugged in and potentially damaging the vehicle and charger.

• Long-Term Storage Charge

Vehicles with PowerDrive 3 chargers are designed to be left connected, with AC power to the charger on, during off-season storage. The on-board computer will automatically active the charger every 15 days. To return the vehicle to service, unplug the charger DC cord, wait 15 seconds for the computer to reset, and plug the charger back in. See following WARNING. This will ensure the batteries are at their optimum charge prior to returning the vehicle to service.

This product fits your Golf Cart

Sorry! This doesn't fit your Golf Cart

Made exclusively for 1995-2015 Club Car PowerDrive & IQ golf carts (48-volt), it's a heavy-duty golf cart battery charger that will prevent undercharging or overcharging your golf cart batteries. So just plug it in and forget about it! If your original charger or Club Car PowerDrive battery charger recently stopped working, the Lester Links charger is your best option to replace it. This charger is built by the most respected battery charger manufacturer in the business, and is only made in America.

This Lester Links 48 volt golf cart battery charger is made for 48V Club Car DS, Precedent, Carry All, Villager & Transporter golf carts with WORKING OBC installed (all PowerDrive / IQ & IQ Plus systems). Plug the battery charger into your Club Car and once your golf cart batteries fully charge, the Club Car's onboard computer automatically tells the charger to stops charging. You do not have to shut it off yourself. So just plug it into your Club Car and forget about it!

Please note: This 48 volt battery charger is fully automatic, meaning it will shut off on it's own, upon full charge. It does NOT contain the "winter storage mode", meaning that the battery charger will not turn off and back on it's own. 

This 48 volt Club Car battery charger is made by Lester Electrical, which is a company that is well respected in the industry for making the longest lasting Club Car golf cart battery chargers. Our customers have even found that these heavy-duty intelligent chargers will last for more than 20 years.

The Club Car smart charger comes fully assembled with 8 foot cables and a Club Car molded 3-prong round plug. Just take it out of the box, plug it into the wall and plug it into your Ingersoll Rand (IR) Club Car. That's really all there is to it.
