CALCULATORBattery replacement
How many packs will you buy?
A cart's battery is a clock, not a one-time cost. Lead-acid packs age out in a few years; lithium usually outlasts the cart. This shows how many replacements your hold period buys — the number behind the lithium vs lead-acid decision.

METHODOLOGY — the assumptions behind these numbers
Typical service life & replacement pack cost: lithium 12 yr / $2,800 · lead-acid 4 yr / $1,600 · AGM 5 yr / $2,200. The original pack is in the purchase price; this counts only replacements. Real pack prices vary by dealer and voltage.
