Accessory Station

Nowadays the market is filled with accessory stations to attach to your trolley to hold an umbrella, a drink, a scorecard and a gps system. These are great and keep everything in one place, are convenient, useful and can make your golf game more enjoyable so check them out and ask your local Pro or us about one for your trolley.

Do remember that Golf Trolley Garage works with a lot of the local golf Professional's in Somerset and surrounding areas. We have introduced ourselves and met these Professional's to promote our business but also to help them provide a service to their members and make sure they do not lose any business. We have been welcomed by all at these golf clubs not just for the service but knowledge too as we are here to help and if you come in to us please say which club you play at or are a member at.

Battery

The battery is the power source for your electric golf trolley and so should be looked after. They come in different powers 20ah or 22ah common as 18 hole batteries and 28ah or 30ah for 36 hole batteried, also a 26ah 27 hole version.
It should be charged properly in the first instance as the manufacturers details suggest and if it is new should be discharged fully before being charged again for the first few times to make it work properly and efficiently.
The terminals should be kept clean and free of any corrosion to maintain a proper connection. Such corrosion or build up has caused battery failure. This can be cleaned off by just pouring boiling water over the corrosive powder.
The lead should be break free and if there is a fuse this should be checked now and again to make sure it hasn’t blown.

A normal lead acid battery should last a couple of years with good and proper use and it hasn’t been unknown for it to last more than that but this also depends on how much usage it gets ie 36 holes regularly
