36v vs. 48v Golf Carts?

[rOmiLaYu]

Yeah. That will work.

Less than $20 used. Nice. Will report back with "data."

Something like that

See my post below yours. That's a load tester?

Also is it safe to assume that I'd need to disconnect and test individually? Assuming that since they are wired in series, just clamping into one would test the bank and not the individual battery.

Yes. Test each individually.
I dont disconnect

No, there are eight six volt batteries. So you're saying that if I had four 12 volt batteries as opposed to eight 6v batteries it would hold a bigger charge?

I have a 48V system; comprised of (8) 6V batteries.
I called a golf cart place to ask if I could go with (4) 12V batteries. They said no.
I’m no Nikolai Tesla, so I took them at their word. But I’ve had excellent power/reliability with the (8) batteries.
I’d disconnect the system and test each one separately.

FYI - that's probably close to 500# of batteries!
I just bought a 48v with 4 12v liPo4 batteries. Total weight for all 4 batteries, 98#.

The benefit is they will last twice as long and for infinitely more cycle charges. And longer range.

Ive installed Lithium in boats. The 48v lithium pack was 75lbs. Trojan 12v are about 85lbs a piece. Thats a huge weight difference. The cost is the biggest downside. They can be hazzardous too. The other thing is that there is no low warning. They dont slow, just die.
The weight though might be worth the $
