My guesstimate is something in the 75AH range.
That means you get roughly 46% the run-time you'd get with a typical 48V battery pack (6x8V -170hr)
Since they are used batteries, the actual run-time will most likely be less than that.

I know these batteries aren't perfect for a golf cart application, but since I got the batteries for free, what can it hurt (other than run time) to use these batteries. Let's say I get 70-75 hours run time. That should work okay for me for a few years until I decide to get the proper batteries. Do you think I can use a 48 volt golf cart charger to charge these batteries as a pack?
