With the emerging lithium market of drop in replacement for lead acid, I'm researching the possibility of having a set of 4- 12 volt 100AH lithium batteries serve both my 48 volt DS cart and my fishing boat. I use the cart and boat at different times of the year so moving the pack would not be an issue. My DS cart has an OBC so that would be by-passed and I would purchase a 4-bank lithium charger that charges each battery separately. These batteries have their own BMS. The one concern I have is determining the max amp draw of my MOT-A4 motor. I seldom use more than half throttle on the cart and typically cruise around 10mph on trails.

Thoughts?
