The NP18-12B is commonly used as an 18-hole golf trolley battery and is particularly associated with older and compatible models of:

• Powakaddy / PowaKaddy ? compatible models using a single 12V battery of this size.
• Hill Billy ? compatible 12V models.
• Motocaddy ? compatible older 12V models using the 180 x 76 x 167mm battery case.
• Mocad ? compatible models.
• Topcart ? compatible models.
• Taxi ? compatible models.
• Other golf trolleys using the same 12V battery dimensions, terminal configuration and electrical requirements.

IMPORTANT: Golf trolley compatibility depends on the trolley model and battery connection system. Always compare the dimensions and terminals of your existing battery before ordering.

The NP18-12B uses Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) technology. The electrolyte is retained within a glass fibre separator, helping provide a sealed and reliable battery construction.

Its Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) design incorporates low-pressure valves that allow excess gas to escape if necessary while helping the battery recombine gases during normal operation.

This makes the battery particularly suitable for equipment where a conventional flooded battery would be inconvenient.

• Recharge only with a charger suitable for a 12V VRLA/AGM lead-acid battery.
• Do not short-circuit the terminals.
• Do not expose the battery to fire, excessive heat or sparks.
• Do not open or dismantle the battery.
• Do not place the battery inside a completely sealed container because VRLA batteries can release gas under abnormal charging conditions.
• Ensure correct polarity when connecting the battery.
• Secure the battery properly during transportation and installation.
• Recycle used lead-acid batteries through an appropriate battery recycling facility.
