There are many of us on here using either 7 Nissan Leaf modules, or 14. This gives 58.8 volts, or is it 58.4... Anyway, from research I have done, it seems most components designed for 48 volt systems, can handle up to 60 volts.

However, most of us running these setups have aftermarket controllers and motors. So I'm not sure how the stock controllers and motors would hold up to the additional voltage.

What charger do you have? Are you using a "Club Car" charger? You can always get one that is designed specifically for lithium. Most can be adjusted by the user for charging to a specified voltage. Of course a BMS is recommended to keep all the cells in the pack balanced.
