12V vs 24V golf buggy batteries
The voltage must match the buggy. A 12V golf buggy battery is common on smaller buggies and is sold by hole rating: an 18-hole pack is enough for one round. A 24V pack is usually sold as a 36-hole battery and suits buggies built for longer play. Never swap one for the other, and check the connector before you order.
Lithium or lead-acid for a buggy?
Lithium is lighter, charges faster and needs no maintenance. Lead-acid costs less: our Lead-Acid 12V 24Ah Buggy Battery is $259. Our guide to lithium versus lead-acid batteries covers the trade-offs. Lithium packs we sell carry a 5-year Australian replacement warranty.

How to replace the battery
- Switch the buggy off and unplug the old pack.
- Photograph the connectors so you can refit them the same way.
- Slide out the old battery.
- Fit the new pack and connect it.
- Charge it fully with the correct charger before the first round.
What "18-hole" and "36-hole" mean
Hole ratings are a simple way to size a battery. An 18-hole pack is intended for one round, and a 36-hole pack for two. A battery's energy in watt-hours is its volts multiplied by its amp-hours, and our 24V 36-hole packs are rated from 250Wh to 380Wh. A larger pack gives more rounds between charges, but weighs a little more.

Glossary: battery terms
- Voltage (V): the electrical pressure of the battery. It must match your buggy.
- Amp-hours (Ah): the capacity of the battery. Larger numbers run longer.
- Watt-hours (Wh): energy, calculated as volts multiplied by amp-hours.
- Hole rating: a simple guide to how many holes the battery can power.
- BMS: the electronics in a lithium pack that protect it from over-charge and over-discharge.
Recycling the old battery
Do not put a lead-acid or lithium battery in the household bin. Take it to a battery recycling drop-off. Many battery retailers and council sites accept them.
