How to save the battery power of your golf cart?

As the living standard grows, golf is not only one sport, but one kind of communication. Golfer can also talk about business while playing golf, which is one elegant way. Electric golf cart is the necessary traffic tools in golf course, then, how to driver it much farther? Here are 5 tips from Marshell technology team.

1, lighten the load weight if you can.
Everyone knows that it will consume more power if the electric golf cart body is weighter, so we need to consider lighten the weight if you can.

2, Avoid sudden brake.
As the main power supply of electric golf cart is lead battery, short time and high efficiency stimulation will not only increase the discharging efficiency and lower the battery capacity, it also caused the damage on controller and braking components.

3. Normal speed driving make safe and energy-saving.
For all the electric vehicles, we should drive them at stable speed if the road condition and traffic condition are permitted, while we have our own good driving habit. It is good to loose accelerator pedal and keep the present speed after the golf cart moves and speed up.

4, keep the tires high pressure.
From many experiences, when tires are with higher pressure, it will not only decrease the bumps and remove the inconvenience because of particles, but also reduce the COF between tires and road, to lengthen the driving distance.

5.Charge the golf cart at fixed period.
For golf cart batteries, to make sure that the batteries have no loss of capacity and discharging problem, we must charge the batteries at fixed period and decrease the damage because of loosen of capacity. Meanwhile, inject vitriolic acid to enlarge the inside activity and improve the usability.

Hope your Marshell electric golf cart run farther after you follow the tips from Marshell technology team.

The development history of electric classic car

Since 2000, electric classic car have got much improve because of the good-looking, performance and zero emissions. Electric classic car has more developing room as people appeal to save energy and decrease emissions more and more powerfully and related energy-saving rules issues. It is widely used properties, attractions and business street etc public areas. Now lets realize the development processes.

Fuel period, talking about the prelife of the electric classic car, everyone knows that it is the fuel powered classic car launched by oversea brand such as BMW in 1980s or 1990s. It is nostalgic product in EU countries. From law, one car lives more than 30 years and can work till now, which is called classic car.

Electric period, more people would like to have one electric classic car as vintage style is more and more powerful in people’s life. But because of its high price, many consumers think it a great task. At this time, some Chinese manufacturers found this big market and they launched one new electric vehicle with appearance similar with the traditional classic car, after improving the manufacturing processes, raw material and engining way. It is powered by electric energy, with zero emissions, low noises, high performance and max speed at 25km/h, totally only several tens of thousands RMB. There are totally dozens of manufacturer of electric classic car in China, offering several thousands classic cars per year.

It takes only 10 years that the classic car developed fast from fuel powered to gas powered. Many advantages make the percentage in market higher and higher, and we believe that it will replace many fuel powered cars in the near future.

Golf cart marketing is greatly potential

Golf cart, divided onto electric golf cart and gas golf cart, is specially developed and designed for golf course, and it can also be used on holiday village, villa district, garden hotel and touring spots, etc. As China economic’s development, golf is received by more people, thus, golf cart has a wider marketing room.

Analyst from Champ industry told that, golf cart industry develops a little slower these couple years because of financial crisis, but the new opportunity of golf industry is coming as the economic’s rapid development goes on and international financial crisis decreases.

As the technology for golf cart is improved higher and the end demand market is bigger, both home and international golf cart markets look very good. Recently years, Golf industry in China developed fast, home consumption increases a lot. Therefore, most manufacturers produce other vehicles or sports equipments as well as golf carts and golf trolleys. In addition, China is one of the biggest suppliers of golf cart, golf equipments and related products, and many golf equipments are exported to all over the world each year.

At the same time, the enterprises joining golf industry become more and raw material prices are higher, so the benefits of golf industry decrease, and the golf carts marketing is more competitive.

From Investment Report of 2014-2017 China Golf Cart Marketing, the development of golf industry is greatly potential, and the number of golf course is bigger in future. It causes the development of golf cart industry and products consumptions keep increasing.

Mobile energy will revolutionize the way humans utilize energy, as thin-film solar technology allows energy to be generated anytime and anywhere.

Hanergy Holding Group and Hanergy Thin Film Power Group Chairman Li Hejun delivered a keynote speech at the news conference. He noted that “mobile energy+” would profoundly change the current industry structure and encourage industrial process renovation, so that every industry would have chances of acquiring competitive advantages to realize green upgrade. “Mobile energy+” will enable various basic elements of economic development to be gathered and allocated globally and facilitate the development of investment, finance, R&D, manufacturing, information technology, logistics, services and human resources. It will inject a powerful driving force for growth into the global economy and bring benefits to all countries.

At the news conference, Hanergy presented mobile energy solutions customized for mobile dining cars, RV’s and sightseeing cars. With thin-film solar’s advantages of flexibility, light weight, high energy conversion efficiency, and superior low-light performance, this solution integrates thin-film solar modules into a car roof and/or body and thus makes the car itself an independent green power generator. It will use the sun to charge cars’ storage batteries and combine information with energy to realize information’s dominant role in precise power transmission, fulfilling cars’ various electricity demands. Meanwhile, it will greatly enhance driving comfort and improve a vehicle’s environmental-friendly index by reducing emissions.

At the news conference, Hanergy announced its strategic cooperation with Tai’an Chang’an Dining Equipment Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Chang’an), a professional mobile kitchen manufacturer based in Shandong Province. With Hanergy’s mobile energy application technology, the two sides are producing the world’s first electric dining car fully powered by solar energy. The mobile dining car is integrated with thin-film solar power modules with a daily power output of 6 kWh in normal sunlight. This can meet the entire electricity needs of various electrical appliances in the dining car, such as the refrigerator, soymilk machine, frying pan, and steamer and sustain daily operations with zero emissions. In addition, using solar power modules allows most of the appliances in the dining car to use direct current, reducing energy consumption to the utmost. It is an innovative application in China’s dining facility and vehicle industries.

Chang’an President Wang Jingdong said there would be huge market potential for solar-powered dining cars and Chang’an expects to carry out long-term cooperation with Hanergy with an estimated annual purchase amount of 25MW of thin-film panels. Hanergy will provide Chang’an with supporting installation and maintenance services, and develop other solar application projects related to dining cars with Chang’an. Chang’an’s dining cars have been sold to China’s major cities and exported to over 30 countries, including the US, Australia, France, Italy and South Africa.

Hanergy also cooperated with Suzhou Eagle, China’s well-known electric sightseeing car manufacturer, to develop fully solar-powered sightseeing cars. Hanergy’s flexible thin-film solar power modules, installed on the car’s roof, can supply about 2 kWh of green power for a car’s storage battery, fulfilling power needs of 20 kilometers per day with no need for extra charging. At the news conference, there was also an exhibition of solar-powered RV’s. In normal sunlight, Hanergy’s flexible thin-film solar panels can provide the vehicle’s storage battery with 2.65kWh of electricity, which can keep the battery fully charged and fulfill power needs from devices such as LCD TVs, refrigerators and car audio. With the thin-film panels providing a steady current of electricity to charge the battery, the need for frequently igniting the engine to use the battery is reduced and as a consequence, noise and energy consumption are decreased while living comfort and environmental-friendliness are greatly improved. With the instrument sets, one can also monitor the power generation situation, battery status and electricity at any time.

The cross-field cooperation of Hanergy’s “mobile energy+” solution is long-established in the vehicle and vehicle-related industries.

Electric VS Gas Powered Golf Carts

Application & Preference

New customers always have the question, “What’s better, gas or electric?” My answer is always the same – it largely depends on how you plan to use your golf car and what your preferences are. Electric golf carts run nearly silently and have no fuels or oils to deal with, perfect for supporters of the green movement. Gas golf carts are a little more on the noisy side and will obviously require gas to operate – regular unleaded, to be exact.

Marshell electric hunting cart

Electric golf carts do depend on their batteries for power, so if you’re someone who wants to use your golf cart for hours upon hours at a time, you may want to stick with gas. This especially holds true for those that enjoy camping and RVing – if you don’t have access to power neither will your electric golf cart.

Another point that’s often forgotten is the amount of accessories you plan to install on your golf cart. If you want stereos, lighting, fans, heaters, etc. all of this takes a considerable amount of power. For an electric cart this energy comes right out of the same bank of batteries that your motor relies on. Gas golf cart accessories will also rely on battery power, however, they feature a starter/generator that will charge the battery on its own while the gas pedal is depressed. This doesn't mean a gas golf cart battery is invincible – any accessories left on while the cart isn't running will eventually kill your battery.

Performance

In the beginning, golf carts were designed to simply be what their name implies – cars for golfing. While either type of cart can easily haul you and a friend around most reasonable kinds of terrain there are other points to consider when making a decision – especially for those who expect (or demand) a little more.

With horsepower ratings ranging from 10-12 HP, gas golf cars are as much as 3-4 times more powerful than their electric counterparts. An electric golf cart, on average, will feature a 3-5 HP electric motor – but that’s not to say electric carts aren't impressively powerful in their own right. Light hauling and yard work can be done with either type of vehicle and both will perform satisfactorily. However, those who demand power in off-road conditions with rugged terrain and steep inclines will almost always want to stick with gas power.

As we mentioned before, electric golf carts aren't for those who wish to joy ride for hours a day. An electric cart will typically get around two hours of continuous motor run time before the batteries will need re-charging. This translates to anywhere between 18-25 miles depending on usage and the terrain – still pretty impressive. On the gas side of things manufacturers have made great strides in improving gas efficiency and the Yamaha Drive currently leads the pack in fuel economy by averaging nearly 29 MPG.

Aside from power sources and horsepower ratings, both types of vehicles operate in much the same fashion. To the untrained eye you couldn't tell the two apart from each other and for the most part they both ride and handle the same. Both types of vehicles will get about 14-15 mph top-speed (unmodified).

Maintenance

All in all, both types of golf carts have fairly light requirements when it comes to maintenance. With electric carts your main concern lies within your batteries – make sure you check the water levels monthly (at least) and top-off as needed. The batteries are the life-blood of an electric car and with a replacement set costing well over $600 these days it’s not something you want to ignore. With proper maintenance of batteries and responsible charging habits you can expect to get 5-6 years (sometimes longer) of solid performance before they will need replacing. In comparison, neglecting your batteries can shorten their lifespan to as little as 1-2 years.

Summary

Now that you have a better idea of how both gas and electric golf cars operate, hopefully you’ll have an easier time making a decision. Keep in mind, this article is comparing “standard” golf carts. There are motor and controller upgrades out there to get the power of a gas golf car (and more) in electric form – though that is beyond the scope of this article.

How to maintain and safe drive a golf cart

Nowadays, more and more people become interested in playing golf. Thus, electric golf cart becomes more and more fashionable as one favorite of golf fans. Golf cart is versatile vehicles that can be put to numerous uses both on the golf course and off. For those who like to play golfing very frequently, owning their own golf cart sense much more as opposed to renting a cart every time that they play. Here I will give you same tips about how to maintain and how to drive an electric golf cart properly.

The maintenance of golf cart is a piece of cake if simple things are checked regularly. On reading the manual you get an idea of performing simple and basic maintenance techniques. 

Tip 1, batteries, as major part of the electric golf cart, must be given great attention. Clean the batteries and refill water, and clean the exteriors of the batteries with a mixture of baking soda and water. Never leave the batteries uncharged if its charge level is low. The cable connectors and battery caps must be tightened firmly and a light coating of petroleum jelly will stop corrosion of wirings. 

Tip 2, another important part of the golf buggy that needs regular maintenance is tires. The tire pressure must be maintained to the prescribed standard value. If the carts are driven extremely faster, the wheels and tires will not withstand the speed. Hence both have to be changed other than the standard size. 

Tip 3, besides, all these, regular cleaning of spark plugs, oil filters, air filters and periodic oil change will help the golf cart to stay in good condition. Beyond these weekly regular checks, the golfer must schedule a major check-up every three months and take the cart to a professional mechanic. The functioning of brake system, engine and suspension are systematically checked and fixed during these visits.

Besides I will tell u same thing about how to keep safe driving. Most of the accidents of golf carts are involved are from the fault of golfers themselves. These always happen when they take joy rides on it. 

Tip 1, driving a golf cart, just like you were driving a real car on an actual road. 

Tip 2, read the warning and safety labels, and follow them at all times.

Tip 3, make sure that your arms and your legs are always inside especially when moving，including your shoe cleats. 

Tip 4, do not turn corners fast at especially when you do not have the belts on.

Tip 5, always watch where you are going. It is a simple to do but sometimes you get distracted and end up driving off the path at last. 

Tip 6, do not use them in places where they are not meant to go such as in water or through trees, the golf buggy should only be used for their purposes, but go such as in water or through trees.

Le Supercar hopes to be China's answer to Tesla

Not Renault Le Car, but Le* Car. One difference is that the drawings above are of the Le* Car, please note the asterisk, and it hails from China. Another difference is that "Le" means "the" in French, but it means "happy" in Mandarin. The car will be another in the multitude of electronic products from Leshi Internet Information & Technology, run by its founder Jia Yueting, using the diminutive prefix it likes to apply to products like LeTV. LeTV is described as China's version of Netflix.

Almost year ago Yueting announced he was going after Tesla with an electric car developed in-house, and these are the first drawings. Of course, we don't know how close the final product will be to these renderings, but the company says "the design language itself is final." The company has 600 newly hired employees working on it, 200 of them in the US, led by Tony Nie. Nie held senior positions at Lotus Engineering China from 2005 until 2011. He's been on the job for a year and has scooped up employees from Tesla, BMW, and General Motors.
Last year, Yueting declined to tell Bloomberg how the Le* Car's development would be paid for. Fast Company reports that Yueting cashed out $1.2 billion of stock in his company, then loaned the money back to LeTV to do all of the work in-house, including every aspect of the powertrain. Why is LeTV leading the initiative? Because the company plans to use the vehicle as another platform for its expanding content business, the same way Amazon has come out with Kindle tablets and the Fire phone.
The Le* Car will be a luxury offering, and if all goes to plan we'll see it at the 2016 Beijing Motor Show, then on the market sometime around early 2018.

Electric vehicles–encompassing the gamut of products from traditional hybrids, plug-in hybrids and pure electric vehicles –have seen some impressive benchmarks come and go in recent years; 2013 and 2014 each saw sales for this segment exceeding the half-million mark, and 2015 is on track for a repeat.

As of the end of July, nearly 290,000 vehicles with a battery generating at least some of their momentum have been sold in the United States, including nearly 120,000 plug-in models (whether pure electrics or plug-in hybrids).

But while that is a large number of vehicles, 2015 sales numbers to date still represent the same 3% of total U.S. vehicle sales seen in 2012, before some major players joined the charge.

Just under half of American car owners (or anticipated owners) say they would consider a traditional hybrid the next time they are in the market for a new vehicle (48%, identical to 2013 findings); they had lower consideration levels for plug-in vehicles, whether they be hybrids (29%, up two percentage points) or pure electrics (21%, also up two points). An additional two in 10 would consider a diesel (19%, up three points), while 35% would consider a smaller or gas-powered vehicle to save on operating costs (down three points).

These are among the findings from a Harris Poll of 2,225 U.S. adults (aged 18 and older) surveyed online from May 20-26, 2015.

Most of these vehicles appeal more to some groups than to others:

– Millennial drivers are more likely than their elder counterparts to consider a traditional hybrid, with 57% saying they would consider one (vs. 49% of generation Xers, 43% of baby boomers and 38% of matures). This same trend holds true for plug-in hybrids (39% vs. 28%, 22% and 23%) and pure electrics (34% vs. 17%, 14% and 11%), as well as for diesel vehicles (27% vs. 16%, 17% and 9%).

– Men are more likely than women to consider an electric vehicle (25% men, 17% women) and more than twice as likely to indicate that they would consider a diesel (28% men, 11% women).

– Distance drivers–those who travel more than 50 miles in an average day–are especially likely to say they’d consider a plug-in hybrid (38%, vs. 28% of those traveling 30 miles or less in a typical day), a pure electric (32% vs. 18%) or a diesel (28% vs. 17%).

– Democrats and Independents are more likely than Republicans to consider a traditional hybrid (53% Democrats, 52% Independents and 42% Republicans), a plug-in hybrid (34%, 32% and 20%) or a pure electric (26%, 25% and 10%).

When asked to select their top concerns related to pure EVs, price (67%) and range (64%) rise to the top, followed by repair/maintenance costs (58%), reliability (53%), performance/power (50%) and the fact that it’s still new technology (42%).

– Price (73% matures, 71% baby boomers, 63% each generation Xers and millennials) and range (75%, 75%, 58% and 52%) are especially strong concerns among older Americans.

American drivers’ top concern when considering a new vehicle–reliability, which 93% rate “very important”–is not among the top barriers standing in the way of EV adoption.

In addition to being the top barrier to EV adoption, purchase cost is the second most important consideration when looking at a new vehicle (with 81% considering it very important). Right now hybrids and EVs still come at a premium when shopped against otherwise comparable vehicles, but those comparative costs are slowly going down. Time will tell whether this might lead to stronger sales.

Methodology
This Harris Poll was conducted online, in English, within the United States between May 20 and 26, 2015 among 2,225 adults (aged 18 and over). Figures for age, sex, race/ethnicity, education, region and household income were weighted where necessary to bring them into line with their actual proportions in the population. Propensity score weighting was also used to adjust for respondents’ propensity to be online.

All sample surveys and polls, whether or not they use probability sampling, are subject to multiple sources of error which are most often not possible to quantify or estimate, including sampling error, coverage error, error associated with nonresponse, error associated with question wording and response options, and post-survey weighting and adjustments. Therefore, The Harris Poll avoids the words “margin of error” as they are misleading. All that can be calculated are different possible sampling errors with different probabilities for pure, unweighted, random samples with 100% response rates. These are only theoretical because no published polls come close to this ideal.

Respondents for this survey were selected from among those who have agreed to participate in Harris Poll surveys. The data have been weighted to reflect the composition of the adult population. Because the sample is based on those who agreed to participate in our panel, no estimates of theoretical sampling error can be calculated.

22 electric sanitation vehicles working for the 9.3 parades

22 electric sanitation vehicles were sent to Tiananmen Square, joining the sweeping work for the 9.3 parades. On 9th Aug, the large-scale electric sanitation vehicles debut and drove to Chang'an Avenue and Second and Third Ring Road as the trial operation. The roads were spotless after sweeping and cleaning. And the work cost is 2/3 less than the traditional diesel anitation vehicles.

From the "Beijing 2013-2017 Air-Cleaning Action Plan", the percent of electric sanitation vehicles will arrive more 50% in the whole Beijing and more than 70% in the 6 urban areas. On 9th Aug, the wolrd's first pure electric sanitation vehicle debut at Tiananmen Squre in Beijing. Different from the traditional sanitaion vehicles, the appreance color of new electric sanitation vehicle is luxury gold color, and scale is much larger.

Beijing Environmental Sanitation Group takes the environment and sanitation security job for the 70th anniversary of the victory parade on 3rd, Sep. The 22 new-introduced electric sanitation vehicles will sweep and clean Chang'an Avenue and full meet the standard of spotlessness.

One Charger from Beijing Environmental Sanitation Group told, one hour before the 60th anniversary in 2009, 20 sanitation vehicles drove in a oblique row through Chang'an Avenue. After cleaning, there is no any black when touching the road and smear onto the white shirt. Now the effect is much better due to the new pure electric sanitation vehicles, the dust is reduced less than 2 grams per squre meter. While the dust is 8 grams by the traditional sanitation vehicle. There should be only 3 grams per squre meter for the important activities.

Moreover, this sanitation vehicle is with the advantages of zero emmision, zero pollution, low noise, low thermal radiation, and solves the problem of short range per charge of previous pure electric vehicle. It can reach range of 360km and work for 7 hours per full charge.

The new pure electric sanitation vehicle is of high-pressure cleaning and sweeping, suitable for road sweeping and high-pressure cleaning of wide and flat city road, squre, airport, dock. This vehicle can equal to the workload of 20 workers save more than 80% human workload.

In future, the new pure electric vehicle will be promoted to Hebei and Tianjin.

How to choose one electric mobility scooter for elerly

The user communities of mobility scooter are much different, it is first important  at the safety design aspect. Then, how to choose one mobility scooter? Here is some advice from Marshell engineers Group.

First, speed.

The speed should be slow. The international standard speed is 8 km/h for the old electric vehicle, considerring the healthy condition of old people. Generally, the electric mobility scooter with 20~50 km/h speed is not one standard mobility scooter for elderly. The speed can be learned from manufacturer, or, directly from the scooter dashboard. One vehicle with 8 km/h speed may be installed 12km/h dashboard, but there is no possible with one 60 or 70 km/h speed dashboard.

Second, driving distance.

The 36V/12Ah battery have the capacity for a range of 50km, and normally it's better that the longest driving distance is around 35 km, still depending on the driving road condition. You should consider to charge twice at different time or not choose mobility scooter if the driving distance more than 50km.

Third, brand.

There are many brands of electric mobility scooter. Consumers should choose a long-run, low repair rate, high quality and creditworthy brand. Choose the brand with ISO9001-2000 certificate, with official webiste. At least they can prove classy company strength, long-running time.

Fourth, frame design.

The center of gravity should be low and steady, which can be learned from the pedal height. If the ground clearance is high, the center of gravity is high and it's not safe when driving. The distance of the left and right wheel should be wide. Under the condition of same vehicle width, wheel distance is larger, the ground adhesion is higher, much easier when turning round, then it will be much safer. If the vehicle can turn over, it's not up to the motor, but the barycenter design, wheel distance and speed. The vehicle will turn over easily when turing round if the center gravity is high, narrow wheel distance and high speed.

Fifth, operating system.

The mobility scooter is different from other vehicles, it should be easily operated because the elderly drive. As the transportation tool, it's enough for elderly to go forward, backward and brake. One is it's easily operated and safe, and the other is the failure rate is low, no reparing trouble.

Sixth, scooter type.

The mobility scooter can be divided to luxury type, general type, front and back shock-avoiding type, light type. The luxury type scooter has full functions but expensive, general type is simple and economy. While the light type  is flexible but with short distance. Consumer should take this into consideration when buying.

Last, after-sales service. 
 
One should know about the after-sales service when buy a vehicle. The mobility scooter is different, had better to choose the manufacturer which offer door-to-door service within the warranty item. If not, the elderly can't take the scooter to repair station if something happens to it.

The factors of electric vehicles batteries short lifetime

Electric vehicle is not only environment friendly and save energy money, no need the driver's license, have been gradually recognized by the majority car lovers. While, battery life is a serious problem has plagued everyone.

Battery life is generally 1~2 years, good maintenance is of good to prolong the life, of course, short battery life comes from poor maintenance. Then, what are the factors to impact the electric vehicles batteries life? Marshell gives you detailed answers.

First, insufficient charging.

Some young people don't pay attention to the maintenance of electric vehicles batteries. They charge when they don't drive while unplug the charger when driving, and don't care if the battery is full. It seems convenient but does much harm to the battery.

If the battery is not charged fully for many times, the chemical reaction is insufficient, leading to reduced capacitance, naturally driving distance will reduce as time going.

Second, too heavy load.

A light weight person riding the electric vehicle than the heavy weight one consumes power much lower. Thus, the light weight driver charges fewer times than the weight one. The battery will be damaged after charged too many times, so please don't load more than the vehicles' limit.

Third, over-discharge.

It may be right for other batteries to over-discharge then charge, but not OK for electric vehicles batteries. If the electric vehicles batteries is over-discharge, it will damage the battery activity if over-discharged, result in chemical reactive problem, and then reduce the electric capacitance.

Fourth, use old and new batteries at the same time.

Some family uses the combination of the battery, the result is some batteries are used out while some are not, then the new batteries are damaged and also there may be safety problem.

Marshell's battery has 50% longer lifetime than other ordinary batteries, fully charge just needs 8 hours, continues the mileage 100KM.
