Replacement GoKart Li battery

[spongebob59]

Plugged in the battery today and seems dead as a dodo, not been used in over a year .

Buying new through gokart is £200 so wonder if anyon has sourced batteries from elsewhere ?

Ta.

Problem with the GoKart is whether they'll fit...fairly specialised shape...

Mk1 you can change the battery from the mounting cage, just not sure about Mk2

Charger working OK? Wouldn't expect a battery, lead acid or lithium, to die just through lack of use for a year.

I'll check it all again tomorrow, it was bloody freezing in the garage.

You could always contact GoKart and ask them for advice. Usually very good at helping out their customers.
I seem to remember you can buy a kit from them that means other batteries will work?

I fitted my old Litepower lithium battery into my GoKart cradle. Not too pretty, but once in place, it looks fine and it's been working great for nearly 6 years now. Cost me under £100 then , now they're around £120.

I bought a new 36 hoke battery for my MK1 from golfworkshop - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/36-hole-...2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0
They also do an 18 hole version as well. No problems with it and fits perfectly

Lithium will if its left in an uncharged state.
