FITS ALL TROLLEY BRANDS.

 

TORBERRY LEAD CONNECTORS;

Most Trolleys have red/black leads as standard on their trolley inc Motocaddy who with their ‘later’ models have blue/black torberry connectors. We would just like to mention that blue/black and powakaddy’s yellow/black torberry’s are exactly the same as the industry standard red/black as red goes to blue or yellow and black to black when fitted.(these 2 companies changed there colour torberry leads connections to ‘trick’ customers that ‘may think’ they can only buy from them), Which is NOT the case.(Stewart Golf also do this)

 

OLDER TROLLEYS; Please be aware that certain older well used electric trolleys ‘can’ in certain circumstances take out too many ‘amps’ that ‘can’ drag down any battery let alone a Lithium battery.We would like to make customers aware of this fact as at the very least the bigger milage battery will always give protection for any older well used machine that does do this.There is a issue also worth mentioning that Motocaddy have a issue with there ‘M Series’ trolley range that ‘some’ of there motors on some of these trolleys from day one of launch that do ‘drag down’ any battery(takes out too much juice from the battery)….(motocaddy have recently bought in extra 4,000 motors for this reason)The reason we are highlighting this is to possibly avoid any ‘difficult’ conversations with customers in the future as Lithium batteries outlast so many trolleys due to there virtual 100% reliability the occasional issue has in our industry started to happen so we feel its only right to highlight this possible long term issue.

 

WHY LITHIUM?

Buying a new trolley is a significant investment. They start at around £300 and can be much more. One of the main influencing factors is your choice of battery. Do you go for an 18- or 36-hole option and should it be lead-acid, as is traditional, or lithium, which is much more expensive.

But the more you look at it, the more reasons there are to increase your initial outlay. Lithium batteries are:

♦  More reliable and last five times longer ♦ Much lighter (2.8kg against 7kg for a lead-acid one) ♦ Half the size ♦ More environmentally friendly

♦ Longevity is the main advantage and thus greater value for money. While lead-acid batteries usually last between 12 and 18 months, our lithium products have a five-year FULL warranty. Lead-acid batteries often deteriorate rapidly and are vulnerable to temperature fluctuations, especially during the winter. It’s realistic to estimate that a lead-acid battery may only deliver one season of regular golf. In contrast, Topcaddy lithium's are protected by an integrated Battery Management System and designed to handle at least many years of golf , irrespective of temperature and downtime.

♦ How to Look after your Lithium; Not using for what ever reason say over winter or illness/injury/holiday etc just re charge after use and then leave off charge for up to 3 months if required. Then before re use just pop on charge for 10 mins and it will be ‘checked’. or in summer when used regularly either re charge and leave on charge between uses or after re charge disconnect and then re use the re charge. doesn't matter at all which way the user does it..(the leave off charge way may make the charger last longer…..) the ‘BMS’ management ‘chip’ inside all lithium's protect the cells and battery.

Yet despite the evidence, British golfers continue to persevere with lead-acid. In Germany, for example, almost 100 per cent of trolley sales are with lithium. In the UK it is just 25 per cent.
