Converting a golf cart from lead acid batteries to lithium batteries is more affordable than you might think. I've had several golf carts over the years and my main complaint is having to maintain and replace lead acid batteries after at the end of their usable life (which is about 2-5yrs costing $1k-$1500). Luckily the price and design of lithium batteries has come a long way since the last time I checked and now you can get an equivalent replacement kit for about the same price. Not to mention the fact that you drop about 275lbs, gain storage space, never have to worry about topping off with distilled water, AND THEY LAST 10-20yrs! That being said, this was a no-brainer for me.
