Choosing Correct Leisure Battery

A deep cycle or leisure battery is not your ordinary car battery. These specialised power sources are intended for powering appliances and gadgets. Their repeat-charging cycle design enable long-term use with little fear of degraded power or shortened life common to car batteries that are allowed to discharge.

Capacity and Discharge

As with all battery types, deep cell or leisure batteries come in differing charge capacities and durations. As a general rule, users should avoid discharging these batteries below the 50-per cent mark, so accurate estimates of the maximum number of hours of use before recharging is imperative. Obviously, the longer the battery is discharging or the greater the power drain, the higher the battery's total capacity must be.

Charge Regulation

Any battery can be permanently damaged by overcharging. Use a charge regulator to ensure the battery receives the proper charge and no more to maximise the battery life. Whether the leisure battery is charged by engine power, an electrical connection or by a solar charger, ensure the battery is not overcharged or left partially discharged for long periods.

The Right Battery Design

Flooded, sealed, gel pack or any other battery designs are not equal. Determine the battery's primary use before arbitrarily choosing one based on price. The perfect battery for one set of conditions may not be the ideal battery for another. 

Yuasa Golf Cart Batteries

Have you ever had a golf cart or UTV shut down due to a dead battery? Do you want to avoid this frustrating and tedious experience? Then consider Yuasa batteries, the world's best for unconventional vehicle batteries. These batteries are strong, sturdy, and won't come loose during bouncy trips.

When considering batteries for utility vehicles (UTVs), recreational utility vehicles (RUVs), or Side x Side Seat Arrangement vehicles, you want something long-lasting. You need a battery that can handle long stretches of grass, sudden shock or power taxation due to mud or sand, and of course the ability to conserve power while golfers take their shots.

If this kind of recreational utility is what you're looking for, a Yuasa battery is your primary choice. Yuasa batteries are built to last and well-housed, with solid connectors that rarely have any circuit problems, if at all. While their primary use is in golf carts, they can be applied to any kind of UTV or RUV vehicle. This adaptability makes them an excellent choice for long trips out onto the green or even onto the beach.

The normal type of battery used in UTV or RUV carts is known as a cyclic battery. This type of battery can often be recharged with the correct charger, making it superior to traditional lithium-ion batteries and even the standard regulated-lead acid batteries offered by Yuasa. This capacity makes Yuasa's golf cart batteries a leading power source for golfers and outdoor hobbyists around the world.

In addition, various makes and models are fully supported by Yuasa's batteries. While you may need to consult a compatibility chart to find out just what is on your menu in terms of compatible batteries, most of the time it's simply a matter of ordering a new battery for your cart. The brands and models covered by Yuasa's power are Kawasaki RUVs, Yamaha Outdoors, Arctic Cat vehicles, and even Honda off-road vehicles. All these transports are powered by Yuasa batteries, giving them a longer activity life and providing plenty of fun and recreational entertainment.

If you have a passion for the outdoors, difficulty getting around without a UTV, or simply love to golf, Yuasa batteries can fulfill all your daily power needs. With a longer-lasting life than most conventional golf cart batteries and a name brand you can trust for good energy, Yuasa helps turn the wheels of thousands of carts every day. If you love to golf or are simply looking for a way to get around, consider investing in a Yuasa battery. You won't regret it.

The Victron Quattro Inverter/Charger

When it comes to understanding basic electrical principles, it pays not to be left in the dark. This is especially the case when working with inverters and chargers. As inverter/charger technology is always changing, new makes and models are continually being released. When showcasing the latest in battery chargers, no product serves as case in point better than Victron Energy’s Quattro. The Victron Quattro can be connected to two independent AC sources such as two generators or one generator and shore-side power. These AC inputs are integrated with a transfer switch that allows the Quattro to automatically connect to the active source.

The Victron Quattro also includes a unique PowerAssist feature that prevents overload of a limited AC source. At first, it will reduce charging in the case where an overload would occur. The second level will boost generator output or shore-side supply with battery power.

In addition to its standard “no-break” output, the Quattro also provides an auxiliary output that disconnects the connected load during battery operation. This feature is ideal for situations where connected loads may otherwise complete discharge one’s battery. Unlike many competing brands, the Quattro can operate in parallel to achieve higher power output, with as many as six units being connected at the same time. In this regard, no other battery charger can compare.

The Quattro is suitable for the following applications:

• automotive
• marine
• solar
• off-grid
• back-up
• island systems
