I own a golf cart dealership in North Florida. We sell and service golf carts, powered by electricity and gas. At our dealership, there are far more electric powered golf carts that we repair than there are electric powered golf carts. I would say we see about a hundred electric vehicles for every gas powered vehicle in our service department. This is not because gas cars are much better and require less maintenance.
The reason for the block difference is due to our location. We are in North Florida. Flat without any hills North Florida. We are also in a country that has been very “green”. Thus, there is not much demand for gas-powered golf carts for non-parking greens. And beside every electric golf cart, there is a golf cart battery charger. We have weekly visits who bring us these Chargers to diagnose.
Sometimes the shipper is ok to indicate there is a problem with the golf cart which we then schedule pick up. However, the majority of the time raw ingredients testing refers to some type Battery charger failure. There’s a very good chance that it is Demon of strength Attack the battery charger. We live in an area of North Florida that has more than our fair share of electric power surges. And if that wasn’t bad enough, we’re also seeing quite a few afternoon thunderstorms with Enough lightning that would have made Ben Franklin want to live here!
This force is rising and electrical screws Find any electrical circuit in their path and destroy it. We once lost our microwave and coffee maker (Labour Day, Labor Day…) cell phones, computer and printer all in the same afternoon! Yes I know, We should have moved! These surgeons have a mission in mind Seek and destroy, including golf cart battery chargers. After repairing a customer’s battery charger, we ask them if they have a surge protector in the circuit they use for their golf cart charger. people, We already know the answer. Most of them have a bolder look on their face when we encourage them to put a surge protector in front of the charger to protect it from surges and surges. They can buy one from us or anywhere they choose. But the concept must be put into practice before Another repair cost is incurred because of these electrical demons.
We had a customer who didn’t agree with our advice and paid for his charger to be repaired and went on his way. Two months later he came back wanting a warranty for his battery charger. Guys, the electronic regulator board completely burned out the first time we fixed his charger. One of the biggest demons must have attacked him and hit him so hard that he literally blew two components off the circuit board.
after show and tell With the colleague and explaining that the power surge/spike caused the damage again, he paid us and went and bought a surge protector and we I haven’t seen the guy charger since. I know he bought one because he called us from a big box store asking about a protective gear he was looking at if it would work well for his charger. live and learn. My mother used to say that some people don’t learn the easy way. They have to be hit twice before they learn to duck. In today’s society, the school of swipes has no shortage of students, that’s for sure.
I hope I have communicated these concepts in a positive way that helps us understand the need to install a surge protector in the golf cart battery charger power circuit. In doing so, you will prevent having to pay for costly repairs caused by “electric demons” of power surges and surges. With the end result of saving money and taking better care of your golf cart. That’s why I write. I am writing to you and your understanding of your golf cart. Thank you for taking the time to read what I had to say. You honor me by doing so. Well, until next time we meet, go out and enjoy your golf cart. After all, isn’t that what you bought it for? MKR
