Compatible batteries

Some of these batteries are here because the published figures line up, not because anyone said they go together — a row marked Figures compared is our reading of two documents that never mention each other. Even where every figure agrees, these are not established:

The plug on the end of the charge lead, and the pin inside it
Whether the pack’s BMS will accept the charge, and what it does when it will not
What the charger does at the end of a charge, which not every maker publishes
The cart’s own charge port and onboard computer, which sit between the two

Worth confirming with the manufacturer or a dealer before buying.

18 A is inside this pack's "Max. Continuous Charge Current 45A". LiTime's 36 V chargers put out 43.8 V, and this pack's own charge voltage is 43.2 V plus or minus 0.6 V — so 43.8 V is the very top of the band LiTime give it, with nothing above it. LiTime no longer sell this charger new; its product address now redirects to the 25A charger. Neither LiTime document names the other product; the pairing is not stated by either.
