Quick video showcasing a lithium battery upgrade into an Icon 48V six seater golf cart in Coronado, San Diego.
Eight sealed lead acid batteries that individually weighed 68 lbs were removed. A large plastic battery tray has enough space for one Allied commerical 48V 105aH model lithium iron phosphate battery and onboard charger. One NOCO GCP1 15A AC Port Plug in installed.
Note, the Allied battery fuel gauge (SOC gauge) had to be used because the Allied battery and Icon software do not talk, Otherwise, the Allied battery SOC would report on the Icon dash display.
Note, the blue Icon 48V onboard charger is left installed because it communicates to the Icon cart.
Install is very DIY friendly
