I just purchased this little gizmo at Walmart on sale for $30 today. Very compact, light weight, really packs a punch.

Great for keeping the Bluetooth speakers and phones fully charged.

Great source for 12 volt power while playing golf. USB output to charge phones, gps device,  stereo speakers or any device.

When I play golf, I want to get away from it all. I don't want any music or other stuff. I just want the peace and quiet of the outdoors. With occasional yelling for bad shots, of course. ;-)

Too bad it probably can't start the occasional golf cart that dies out around the 14th hole! Ever have that happen?

I use old Taylor Made clubs from eBay and golf shops.

Are you talking about starting a gas cart?  It supposedly can start autos.... 

"This Everstart Jump Starter features a durable ABS with rubberized housing. It has a built-in 0.5W LED as a flashlight and a 12,000mAh lithium battery. Use this lithium battery jump starter product as a jump starter, flashlight or an emergency charger. It is also a portable power bank. The 5V 2A USB output charges tablets, smartphones and other portable devices like video games and cameras. This multi-function jump starter comes with a portable bag and a battery level indicator. The reverse connection protection and short-circuit protection make it even safer to operate. This Everstart Jump Starter has rubberized housing that absorbs shock and impact.

Don't get caught with a dead battery in your car again when you have this set on hand. The kit includes reverse protected clamps, a car charger and a home charger."

Or, an electric cart with low batteries?  I've had his happen numerous times.....   :-O

Yeah but for a car it just needs to jump the battery and the gas engine takes over.

For the typical all electric golf cart you're out of luck!

It looks like a good choice to keep the phones and stereo running like you say.

If you call the pro shop most places will send someone out with a replacement cart for you immediately. That has been the policy at the golf courses I have worked at anyways. (they bring two carts out, towing one to drop off for you and keeping the second to tow the bad cart back in).

A minor inconvenience to have to call and hoof it for maybe a hole, but a number of places will also reimburse your cart fee if this happens.

I will try that next time. I think we were to rushed to stop and figure out how to call. One time we just push one cart with the other.

Where do you recommend to look for good quality golf cart batteries?

 

Thanks

I would recommend starting a thread devoted to the topic, since it's only tangentially related to this one. 

That said, most auto shops carry them, like autozone and other similar places.

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
