FORM 48V 15A Lithium Golf Cart Charger - Waterproof Design - 58.4 Volt Output - Onboard Smart Charger for Lithium or LiFePO4 Batteries

Note that I've only just received this charger, but it was very straightforward to connect and fired right up. The unit is staying cool at about an hour in and the fan is quiet. I could've gone for a cheaper unit, but I love that this thing's water resistant and appears to be an American company that stands by its products.If ever I have an issue with this guy I will return and update this review, so if this is all you see, it's still working!

I have a 2012 Club Car Precedent. Two years ago I installed a twin 48v lithium battery package that included a battery charger. The original charger bit the dust after only 2 years. In researching replacements I found lithium battery chargers came with lots of claims and a wide range in pricing. I chose the Form Charger for reasons that it should hold up in extremely humid weather and was moderately priced. I couldn’t be happier with my decision. Right out of the box I could tell it was excellent quality, compact, light weight and unlike my original, able to install directly inside the cart’ battery compartment. Having a few questions on how best to do this I contacted Form Charger and glad I did. They were exceptionally helpful. All in all this was a great purchase…I couldn’t be happier.

Ok, so the but is there so you’ll read further. I converted my Yamaha golf cart from lead-acid batteries to a single 48V lithium battery. My old charger was not designed for lithium batteries so I bought this Form Charger designed for lithium batteries. It worked great for the first couple months. Then it didn’t. It didn’t because my battery drained to zero. Probably because I let it sit idle for 3 weeks without being in tow mode. The battery seemed to have endless power. But it self drained, likely as a result of the controller using some juice. As a result, the charger was not recognizing the battery (a complaint others have noted in their reviews, but there is nothing wrong with the charger). I contacted the seller who quickly replied with a recommended solution. The Form battery will not revive a dead battery, because similar to most chargers, it’s not designed to revive batteries that have lost all power. So the seller’s suggestion was to connect another 48V constant power source to bring it back to life. There are a few alternatives to do this. For $55 after 50% discount I bought a Lithova repair charger on Amazon and recharged the battery to 100% it took about 12 hours. I then reconnected the Form Charger and voila. It worked as it should. I cannot say enough about the awesome communication I received from the seller. Though all communication was via email, I received prompt responses to each of my inquiries. I highly recommend the Form Charger.

I had problems with my charger and contacted Form. They resolved the issue promptly and I am a happy customer.

Discharger has wake up mode, battery charger, and trickle charger. It’s excellent. The people sold. It had a good price ship will buy from again.

It worked ok but didn’t last a year, buying a different one that is cheaper, no need to pay $70 extra for this one thinking its better

The charger arrived very well packaged and in perfect condition. Its simple to set up, there are no real settings, you just connect it to the battery, plug it in, and it works. The LED changes color to show charge status. I measured the output with a clamp meter on a multimeter, and saw 16 amps, so its actually doing a bit better than rated capacity, always a nice thing to see! The charger is well built, the leads and power cord are a good length, and it has good mounting hardware included. Nice surprise when things actually work like they're supposed to!

Bought this Charger to replace my Allied Battery charger, price and warranty period was the main reason. $175 dollars less than what Allied wanted for a new charger. I hope this one will last more than 2 yrs, seems well built and has a great extended warranty that you have to sign up for on their website in order to get the 5 yr. extended warranty. Cord length is a little long for an onboard charger, no other issues so far, fingers crossed.
