Lithium Battery

We will shortly have a new lithium battery tester which will enable us to test lead acid batteries and lithium batteries for both golf trolleys and golf buggies. We will up date you all when we have it.

Batteries

Recently we have had customers in with problems with their batteries, either they are not lasting a full round or not working at all. We have to explain that it's not always the battery that was at fault as sometimes the charger could be the culprit so don't go out buying a new battery with out checking first. Secondly think about the price you are paying for that battery if do do and get one, is it really cheap ! As like most things you get what you pay for, Is it up to the job ? Is it suitable for golf trolleys ? What about after sales care ? The warranty ? We only sell batteries that are purpose made for electric golf trolleys and similar motorized vehicles and you have a place to come back to should you have any queries, so no hassle posting anything or waiting in for a parcel and along with that we can have a look at your charger and give you our expert opinion.
So for now bear these things in mind and feel free to come in and ask any questions.

Battery

Today the phone rang with a customer who had a problem with two batteries that were intermittently losing power, They went on to add that they also had two chargers. They advised that either battery would have been charged with either charger as they did not keep them in specific pairs.

We requested that they bring in all the items for testing which resulted in:

One battery and one charger being faulty

The other battery and charger were ok.

We always recommend that if you have two batteries and two compatible chargers then keep them in designated pairs like colour coding them or labelling.  If battery faults arise in the future then you will know which pair are at fault and require testing.

This Year

This year has got off to a great start, Sales of lithium batteries are increasing as people become aware of their efficiency, power, size and weight and also sales of winter wheels. New customers along with existing customers have been bringing in their trolleys for repairs and servicing and their batteries for testing on our latest testing equipment.
The ability to now take credit and debit card payments has also helped to increase sales, Our workshop has has an overhaul which is an ongoing process so that we can provide the best service possible and cater for an increasing work load.
Here is a picture of some axle mounts we replaced so that you can see what worn ones would look like. The single one is new and below it are the two worn ones.

We look forward to seeing you in the coming year.
