The Full List: Best Lithium Golf Cart Battery

Lithium golf cart batteries have become the new standard for golf carts, replacing traditional lead-acid batteries for most golf cart manufacturers since 2020. And even if your cart didn't come from the factory with lithium batteries, it's easier than ever to convert your cart to lithium and get all the amazing lithium battery benefits, including faster charging, more miles per charge, more power, weight savings, and zero maintenance needs.

1. ECO Battery Thru-Hole Lithium Battery

ECO Battery has been leading the charge in the lithium golf cart battery space for several years now. Not only are these batteries top-tier quality, they are the easiest to install of any brand (thanks to "Thru Hole" design) and offer fitment across more carts than any other battery as well. And as if that wasn't good enough, ECO Battery also has one of the best performing BMS (Battery Management Systems) and one of the longest warranties (10+ Years) on the market. Add in the beautiful fit-and-finish of their black metal battery cases and it's not hard to see why multiple customers order this battery from us each day.

3. BOLT Lithium Golf Cart Battery

BOLT is not new to the lithium battery game, but we only began carrying the brand a little over a year ago. And wow, are we (and our customers) impressed. There is some serious engineering firepower going on at the BOLT Lithium Battery company. From their industry-leading battery case strength, to their top-tier BMS and easy install kits, BOLT knocked RoyPow off our list and sent ALLIED to #4 this year. We are certain that if you choose the BOLT green to power your machine, you will be extremely impressed with the ease of install and the performance you get.

4. ALLIED Lithium Golf Cart Battery

ALLIED Battery has grown into an industry leader in the lithium battery category, and a fan favorite when it comes to bang-for-your buck lithium battery conversion kits. Their older style kits have fallen out of favor with the launch of the new ALLIED RS series of lithium batteries. With an 8-year warranty, freshly upgraded BMS w/ internal solenoid, a standard "wake up" dash button and 36-Volt, 48-Volt, and 72-Volt setups for all cart models, ALLIED has proven to be a great seller. Only ECO and BOLT have outsold ALLIED in volume on our website in 2026.

Even with the updated RS series launching last year, Allied fell in our rankings a bit due to fierce competition from other high-quality brands. The 8-year Warranty is good, but not as good as the batteries listed above with 12-Year and Lifetime offerings. Still, you'll save a few hundred dollars and get a good battery for your money with Allied.

ALLIED Lithium Golf Cart Battery Features

Power Options: 36V / 48V / 72V
Capacity Distance Range: Between 60Ah (20 miles) and 175Ah (60+ miles)

• 36V: 72Ah
• 48V: 105Ah, 168Ah
• 72V: 105Ah

Why Our Customers Love It

• Value for Money: Strong performance without breaking the bank.
• Solid Warranty: 8-Years from a company who has been here for awhile. So you can trust you aren't lighting your money on fire.

5. Trojan OnePack Lithium Golf Cart Battery

Even though industry veteran Trojan Battery is #5 on our list this year, keep in mind that this position is still ahead of 20 other lithium brands out there that never even made the list. And the OnePack is here for good reason, because Trojan Battery has been around 100 years. Yes, you read that correctly, one hundred years. So you know that the OnePack Lithium Golf Cart Battery brings reliability you can trust from an industry leader used for decades by the big manufacturers (Club Car, EZGO, and Yamaha). The Trojan name will cost you more up front... but you can count on it. We just wish the company offered more than just 48V applications.

Trojan OnePack Lithium Golf Cart Battery Features

Power Options: 48V
Capacity Distance Range: Between 105Ah (45+ miles)

• 48V: 105Ah, 171Ah

Why Our Customers Love It

• Legacy Brand: Strong performance without breaking the bank.
• Strong Warranty: 10-Years from a company who has been here for 100 years.
• Premium Quality: Good enough for the major OEMs.

How to Choose the Right Lithium Battery for YOU

Now that you know the best brands, you need to decide how much range-per-charge (power) you need. Luckily, picking the right lithium battery isn’t complicated. The main factor to consider is how many amp-hours (Ah) you need, based on your cart’s accessories and the way you drive:

• Golf Course carts (basic golf carts, neighborhood cruising): 60Ah - 105Ah
• Lifestyle carts (longer drives, 3" or 6" lift kit installed, upgraded tires): 105Ah - 160Ah
• Heavily Modded carts (many electrical accessories, upgraded motor & controller, and 6"+ lift kits with large wheels and tires): 160Ah+
