If your electric trolley suddenly stops or faulters, it's always a good idea to first check your battery leads plus the connections both on the battery and where they connect to the trolley. If nothing is immediately evident then you will need to get the trolley (and battery) tested and checked.

Lithium Batteries

Lithium batteries may appear expensive, but they have a number of advantages. In simple terms they are much lighter, charge quicker, give added power and come with a longer warranty - some are up to 5 years.
In the long run lithium is a good investment - for more details and prices please contact us.

Powakaddy Freeway II Conversion Kit

Powakaddy are now producing a conversion kit for the Freeway II electric golf trolley.
The kit upgrades the  electrics and includes a completely new handle (as fitted to the new Freeway Sport) to convert from the current and often unpopular 'push button speed control'  back to the more popular and reliable 'control knob' system.
We will be pleased to supply full details on request.

During the past few months I've had customers bring in batteries for testing, saying that although only a few months old they are failing before the end of a round.

On several occasions, and when taking the battery out of it's carry bag, the batterys were found to be quite old - and not the battery originally purchased by the customer.

This would indicate the customers battery had been mistakenly switched (or perhaps otherwise).

To safeguard against this, it is a good practice to indelibly mark the outside casing of your battery with your name or some other means of identification. Your trolley and other golf valuables should also be treated in the same way - its better to be safe than sorry.
