Your cart's details
Voltage
48V
Factory batteries
Eight 6V flooded lead-acid batteries
Charging
No OBC documented. On-board charger: Delta-Q QuiQ 1 kW (Carryall, Transporter); on-board automatic 48V DC 17 A (Villager 6 / 8)
Charge port
AC power cord from the on-board charger (110 V outlet)
  • The factory on-board charger is a lead-acid charger: conversion kits replace it with a lithium charger.
  • Some Carryall 500s have the 48V AC "HP" drivetrain instead of the DC motor — tell the battery brand which one you have.
  • One maker rates its 51V 60Ah pack "does not fit and/or will not work" in the 2015+ Carryall and the Transporter, and its 105Ah and 160Ah packs as fits.
  • Club Car also sells the Carryall 500, 502, 550 and 700 with factory lithium; if yours has it, it is not a conversion candidate.
  • Sources disagree: Fleet Lithium sells one bracket for "all Villager and Transporter models", including the Villager 4 that dealer specs list with six 8V batteries, and describes a "factory 48V AC controller" where Club Car lists 48V DC as standard.

Before you buy

Converting the Club Car Carryall 500 / 550 / 700 · Transporter · Villager 6 / 8 (2014 and newer (lead-acid)): what's different

The 2014-on Carryall 500, 550 and 700, the Transporter shuttles and the Villager 6 and 8 carry eight 6-volt batteries, a 500-amp controller and an on-board charger with a cord. They are the heaviest-working carts we cover, so current and capacity matter more than anywhere else.

How to tell it's this one

  • Eight 6-volt flooded batteries.
  • Carryall 500/502/550/700, Transporter 4/6, Villager 6/8, 2014 and newer.
  • On-board charger (Delta-Q QuiQ 1 kW on Carryall/Transporter, 48V 17A on Villager) with a plug-in cord.

The battery bay

No bay measurement is published. Fleet Lithium sells a kit for the Carryall 500 (2014–2026) and one bracket for "all Villager and Transporter models". One maker's chart rates its thru-hole pack as a fit for the Carryall 2015+, Transporter and Villager rows; it rates its larger packs differently for the Villager, so we only count them by size here.

Controller and charging

  • 500A controller on the Carryall 500 series — pick a pack with 250A continuous or more, or expect cut-outs under load.
  • Some Carryall 500s have the 48V AC "HP" drivetrain — tell the battery brand which one you have.
  • The on-board charger is a lead-acid charger: kits replace it.

What owners get wrong

  • Factory lithium Carryall 500/700s exist — check under the seat.
  • A Villager 6 owner's lights stopped working after the swap until a 48V-to-12V converter was added.
  • For shuttles carrying six or eight people, size the pack for the full load (150Ah+).
