If you run a 72-volt golf cart, 4x4 utility buggy, or neighborhood EV and want the most range Lithium Rhino offers, the 76V 170Ah "Godzilla" is built for exactly that. It replaces a full bank of heavy lead-acid batteries with one LiFePO4 pack that stores 13,056 watt-hours, so you can drive longer between charges, climb hills without the power sagging, and stop worrying about watering, corrosion, and short battery life.
This is the highest-capacity battery in the Rhino 72V lineup. It suits owners with lifted carts, hunting and off-road buggies, and long neighborhood routes where a standard pack runs short. The 300-amp continuous BMS delivers strong, steady power for heavier and dual-motor carts, and the pack holds its voltage until it is nearly empty, so performance stays consistent instead of fading as the charge drops.
Everything you need to convert from lead-acid ships in one crate: the battery, a 16-amp smart charger, a 3" color gauge, a 50-amp 12V reducer for your lights and accessories, pure-copper cabling, and mounting hardware. Built-in Bluetooth connects to the free Rhino app for iOS and Android, so you can check state of charge, voltage, and temperature from your phone. Charge heating protects the cells for cold-weather charging, and the kit is backed by an 8-year warranty with USA-based support.
This is a 72V golf cart lithium battery, built at 76.8V nominal. The higher number is normal for LiFePO4: 76.8V nominal is the lithium equivalent of a traditional 72V lead-acid system, and it is what your 72V controller and motor expect. It is intended for carts that already run a 72V system, or for full 72V conversions. Because of its size and weight, most installs require battery-tray modification. Confirm your cart is eligible before ordering.
Key Features
-
170Ah / 13,056Wh capacity: the most energy of any Rhino 72V kit, for the longest range on lifted carts, utility vehicles, and long routes.
-
300A continuous BMS: sustained high output with 500A (50s) and 800A (1s) peaks, for strong acceleration and hill-climbing on heavy and dual-motor carts.
-
Parallel-connectable up to 4 packs: add capacity or current for extreme 4x4, dual-motor, or fleet builds while staying at 76.8V.
-
Charge heating (self-heating): the pack warms its own cells during cold-weather charging, protecting the battery in unheated garages and winter conditions at no extra cost.

- 8-year warranty and USA-based support
Estimated Range
With 13,056Wh of usable energy, the 76V 170Ah Godzilla is built for long days between charges. Your actual range depends on the weight of the cart, terrain, speed, passenger and cargo load, tire and lift setup, and temperature.
Estimated range: up to about 90 miles per charge for a standard cart on flat ground at moderate speed. Heavier use lowers that figure in a predictable way:
-
Light cart, flat ground, moderate speed: roughly 80 - 90 miles
-
Standard everyday driving with a passenger: roughly 60 - 75 miles
-
Lifted cart, hills, or a loaded 4x4 utility buggy: roughly 40 - 55 miles
These are estimates for planning, not guarantees. As a rule of thumb, a standard cart uses about 150 - 200 watt-hours per mile and a lifted or heavily loaded cart uses more, so the same battery travels farther in a light cart than in a heavy one. Because this pack holds steady voltage until it is nearly empty, power stays consistent through most of that range rather than fading as the charge drops.
Range estimates represent distances under favorable conditions. Actual range varies with terrain, weight, speed, temperature, and driving habits.
Fitment & Compatibility
The Godzilla is a 72V-class battery at 76.8V nominal, the lithium equivalent of a traditional 72V lead-acid system. It is designed for vehicles that already run on 72V, or for full 72V conversions.
Suitable for these 72V platforms:
- E-Z-GO TXT (72V builds)
- Bad Boy Buggies (72V models, including Recoil and Recoil iS)
- GEM cars
- Ford Think / Think Neighbor (72V NEV)
- Other 72V carts and utility vehicles
Common uses:
- Long-range neighborhood and community driving
- Lifted and modified golf carts
- 4x4 and dual-motor utility buggies
- Hunting and off-road use
- Off-grid and long-day recreational driving
Before ordering, confirm three things: that your cart is a true 72V system (count the volts on your existing batteries, not the number of batteries), that it has a 72V-capable controller and motor, and that your tray can fit a 20.7" x 17.9" x 12.6" pack. This battery is not a drop-in for a stock 48V cart. Most installs require tray modification, and the pack weighs about 209 lbs, so plan a two-person lift. Send us your year, make, and model and we will confirm fit before you buy.

Frequently Asked Questions
My cart has six batteries. Does that make it a 72V cart?
Not necessarily. Count the volts, not the batteries. Six 12V batteries make a 72V system, but six 8V batteries make a 48V system and six 6V batteries make a 36V system. Check the voltage stamped on your existing batteries and multiply. If you are unsure, send us a photo of your battery bank and we will confirm.
Can I install this in a 48V cart?
Not as a drop-in. A 72V battery requires a 72V-capable controller and motor. Installing it on a 48V system without upgrading the controller, motor, solenoid, and wiring can damage components. A full 72V conversion is possible, but it is a build, not a swap. If you want more range on a 48V cart without changing the controller and motor, ask us about a high-capacity 48V option instead.
Is this a 72V battery? Why does it show 76.8 volts?
Yes, this is a 72V battery. The 72V rating describes your cart's system. Because it is built from LiFePO4 cells, the pack has a nominal voltage of 76.8V and a full-charge voltage of 87.6V. That is the correct lithium equivalent of a 72V lead-acid battery, and your 72V controller, motor, and charger work with it normally. The slightly higher voltage helps maintain steady power under load.
How many miles will I get per charge?
Up to about 90 miles per charge for a standard cart on flat ground at moderate speed. A cart with a passenger in everyday driving typically sees around 60 to 75 miles, and a lifted cart, hilly route, or loaded 4x4 utility buggy sees roughly 40 to 55 miles. Range scales with weight, terrain, speed, and temperature, so treat the high end as a best case for a light cart on flat ground.
Is this battery self-heated?
It has charge heating. The pack warms its own cells while charging in the cold, so charging can proceed safely below freezing. The heater runs only while the charger is connected and shuts off automatically once the cells reach temperature. The discharge temperature range is -4°F to 131°F.
I have a 4x4 dual-motor Bad Boy Buggy. Will one pack run two motors?
In most cases, yes. Both motors draw from the same pack, and the 300A continuous BMS handles typical demand. For very high-draw builds that need more sustained current or runtime, this battery is parallel-connectable up to four packs at the same 76.8V. Send us your model and use case and we will advise on a single pack versus a parallel setup.
Can I wire two of these in series for more voltage?
No. This pack is not series-connectable, so you cannot stack two for a higher voltage. It is parallel-connectable up to four packs, which increases capacity and available current while staying at 76.8V.
How much does it weigh, and will it fit my tray?
The pack weighs about 209 lbs and measures 20.7" x 17.9" x 12.6". Plan for a two-person lift or a hoist. Most installs require modification to the factory battery tray. Confirm your tray space with us before ordering.
Do I need a special charger?
No. A matched 16-amp smart lithium charger is included, with the correct LiFePO4 charge profile. It charges the pack to 87.6V. The recommended charge current is 25A, at which a full charge takes about 408 minutes. Most owners simply charge overnight.
Can I monitor the battery from my phone?
Yes. Built-in Bluetooth connects to the free Rhino app for iOS and Android. You can view state of charge, voltage, and temperature per cell, see fault alerts and cycle history, and access remote BMS diagnostics. There is no subscription. The included 3" color gauge shows the same information on the cart.
Can I run a winch or heavy 12V accessories?
The included 50-amp 12V reducer runs lights, radios, gauges, and similar accessories. A winch draws far more current than a standard reducer is sized to supply continuously, so a dedicated high-output DC-DC converter is the right choice for winch use. Ask us about accessory power if you plan to run a winch.
What controller current can it support?
The BMS sustains 300A continuous with 500A (50s) and 800A (1s) peaks. Match that against your controller's continuous rating. Most stock 72V carts operate well within it. If you run a high-output controller, confirm its continuous draw with us before ordering.
How long does installation take?
Most installs take an afternoon, plus time for tray modification given the pack's size.
What about my old lead-acid batteries?
Most local battery shops recycle lead-acid batteries for free, and many pay scrap value. We can point you to recyclers in your area when you reach out for install support.
What is the warranty, and what if I need to return it?
The pack carries an 8-year warranty on the cells, BMS, and built-in electronics. Register on install day to activate coverage. For Full Details Read The Warranty Tab.
