I have a '91 DS with the resistor coils. Because the cart is using more resistance to lower the speed, does this mean I am using the same amount of battery "juice" regardless of what speed I am going?
I guess what I am asking is, If I get 1.5 hrs at 15 miles an hour, would I also get 1.5 hours at 5 miles an hour? or would I get closer to 3 hours? If I want to be able to wander aimlessly for a longer period of time, without any worry about how far I travel, would a slower speed allow me longer time?
Next question: If I was to upgrade to a solid state system instead of the resistor coils, would there be a benefit in terms of distance or time I would be able to travel? I know there is only so much juice in a set of batteries, I am more wondering if the solid state would be more efficient than the resistor coils, or there would not be enough gain to justify the price.
