Best Way to Store Golf Cart Batteries in the Winter
✅ 1. Fully Charge the Batteries – Before storing, fully charge your batteries to prevent sulfation.
✅ 2. Check and Add Water – Ensure the water level is above the battery plates (use distilled water only).
✅ 3. Disconnect the Batteries – If you’re not using a trickle charger, disconnect the cables to prevent slow discharge.
✅ 4. Store in a Cool, Dry Place – Keep batteries in a temperature-controlled area (above freezing) to prevent damage.
✅ 5. Use a Battery Maintainer – A trickle charger or battery maintainer will keep them charged without overcharging.
✅ 6. Clean the Terminals – Remove corrosion and apply battery terminal protector to prevent buildup.
✅ 7. Check Monthly – If not using a maintainer, recharge every 4-6 weeks to maintain battery health.
Proper winter storage ensures longer battery life and better performance in the spring!
