Lithium Rhino's biggest 48V kit: 8.7kWh and a 300A BMS for lifted carts, hills and long days. The 48V 170Ah kit puts 8,704Wh in one 150 lb LiFePO4 battery, with a 300A continuous BMS (800A max), a high-current relay and self-heating for below-freezing charging. Lithium Rhino rates it for up to 74 miles. The kit includes a fast lithium charger, a heavier 50A 600W 12V reducer, 4 ft 2AWG copper cables, a color dash gauge, a Bluetooth app module and every part you need, all backed by Lithium Rhino's 8-year warranty.
*Range is Lithium Rhino's estimate and varies with cart, terrain, speed, load and tires.
β³ Will It Fit Your Cart?
Made for 48V lead-acid golf carts and utility vehicles. Lithium Rhino says it fits most carts, including:
- Most 48V golf carts
- Lifted & street-legal builds
- Bad Boy Buggies (48V)
- Polaris EV (48V)
- Your cart runs on 48V lead-acid. It isn't for 36V or 72V carts, or carts that came with lithium from the factory.
- It's a large, 150 lb battery. Send us your cart's make, model and battery-bay measurements and we'll confirm it fits before you order.
- The round gauge works with the Bad Boy Buggies and Polaris EV factory dash.
- Built for high-draw carts: 300A continuous (800A max).
- Club Car carts with an on-board computer (OBC) may need an OBC bypass, and EZGO carts have a charge-port interlock wire to handle during install.

Lithium Rhino vs. Lead-Acid
| Lithium Rhino 48V 170Ah | Typical Lead-Acid | |
|---|---|---|
| Watering & terminal cleaning | Never | Regularly |
| Number of batteries | 1 | Several |
| Weight | 60% lighter | Much heavier |
| Power as charge drops | Steady from full down to about 30% | Fades as voltage sags |
| Charge time | Fast lithium charger | Varies by charger |
| Phone monitoring | Yes, via Bluetooth | No |
| Warranty | 8-year limited | Usually 1β2 years |
π Charging Made Simple
Fast Lithium Charger Included
Plugs into your cart's charge port through the included 110V adapter and 15 ft 12AWG cord. The battery accepts up to 50A.
Use the Included Charger
Your old lead-acid charger won't work. Lithium Rhino's warranty requires an approved charger, so stick with the one in the kit.
Cold-Weather Charging
Below freezing, the battery warms its cells to 32Β°F first, then starts charging once they're at a safe temperature.
Storing Your Cart
Don't store the battery fully discharged or go 12 months without charging. Both are excluded from the warranty.
π‘οΈ 8-Year Full Protection Limited Warranty
Register within 120 days of purchase to get the full 8 years (unregistered batteries are covered for 1 year). Kit parts (charger, reducer, gauge, wiring and modules): free replacement for 2 years, then 50% off current MSRP for the life of the model. Commercial, fleet or rental use needs Lithium Rhino's written approval. Full terms at lithiumrhino.com.
