Vatrer is a Chinese company that manufactures a variety of LFP batteries to replace the lead-acid and flooded batteries used in many applications today. Whatever your voltage or amp-hour needs, Vatrer has the right product at the right price.
Recently, the company offered to supply one of its batteries to someone on the CleanTechnica staff who owned an electric golf cart. Since I was the only one to qualify, I became the recipient of a 51.2 volt, 105 amp-hour Vatrer battery with a total capacity of just over 0.5 kWh. All I had to do was install it and go. Such are the advantages of writing for a prestigious online clean energy publication!
Several years ago, my wife and I bought a manufactured home in a seasonal campground in Connecticut. Golf carts have become a fixture of campground living. They bring us to the beach and the laundry room. They pick up our Amazon packages at the office and take us to the restaurant for dinner. We inherited a tired gas-powered cart with our purchase, but since we are both strong advocates for electric transportation, we traded it for a 48 volt electric EZ Go TXT within weeks of buying our unit.
