The golf cart batteries are not the same as your typical car batteries. They require more maintenance because they are not recharged when the cart is on the move. The frequent discharging of the battery could result to a decrease in the battery life but if you take precautions, you will be able to maintain and use the battery for a long time.
There are battery maintenance tips that you can follow. If you take care of the battery, it will function for a long time. The battery should be cleaned using a baking soda solution. This is to be done every 30 days or when needed, should the corrosion becomes visible before the 30th day.
You have to inspect the level of the water in each battery cell before and after you charge it. Leave the covers off always if you are charging the battery cells. This is to stop the build up of gases that may be explosive.
The only kind of water that you must use to fill the battery is distilled water. Never use tap water because it has trace elements and minerals which may affect the flow of electricity in the cart. Always follow these battery maintenance tips to keep your battery as efficient as it should be.
