mwr57 Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 (edited) I picked up a used Carttec 3 years ago. I have had questions and user errors, low remote battery . Called the manufacture they walked me through what I needed to do. Were very helpful. I don't have a lithium battery so it is heavy, but is a work horse . My Course has a high hill on 1 & 10 it handles it with no problem.

The cooler bag underneath is also a clic gear accessory. My speaker and Garmin gps are mounted using a caddie buddy (caddiebuddy.com) clamp. They hav3 a variety of attachment heads for different items like belt clips and go pro Camera screws etc... they are really well made and can be rotated into virtually any position or clamp onto almost anything without slipping.

Joker Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I got my eWheels V2 last weekend and took it out on Sunday. It was the most fun and easy going round I've had walking since using a caddie. My back has never felt better after walking. Been carrying with a Hyperlite Zero most of the year. My home course has a lot of uphills holes 15-17 and it was getting rough pushing a cart. I have it hooked up to a BagBoy Tri-Swivel II and it rolled so easy and has pretty much a 0 turn radius. I tested the limits of the slopes it could handle, took quite a bit for it to fall back on the wheelie bars. Don't have pics or video on the course. This is just me testing it out in my backyard: downlowkey, HardcoreLooper and fozcycle 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don M Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Do the Alphard or the MGI Zip Navigator have easy disconnect to let the wheels free-wheel? In AZ in the winter, I connect the handle of my push cart to the rear rack on my bicycle, and I pedal to the course with my cart trailing behind me. I'd love to get a remote electric cart, so the freewheel setting & convenience is important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to the virus, the walking cart has been in my garage until this weekend. I walked 18 holes both Saturday and Sunday using my cart. I am not sure I will ever ride again unless it's on a vacation and I don't have my walking cart with me. I really enjoyed my round so much more and the exercise was great! The MG1 cart was fantastic, especially using the remote control. The first day, I used my normal golf shoes with spikes and wore spikeless shoes on Sunday. It was the same course and believe the spikeless shoes are going to be the right way to go. It was sooo much better than carrying my clubs or even pushing a cart, which I have done on a few occasions. ... Just an FYI but I forgot to charge my ZIP after playing 2 rounds. I thought I had only played one round but realized I had 2 fun rounds with one charge. I had some yellow bars so figured I would use it til it died and bum a ride with my playing pard when it did. I was a little shocked that it lasted the entire 18 holes. One last red bar at the end but made it to my car. So one charge and 54 holes with the ZIP battery. Just amazing. ole gray, Pstmstr and fozcycle 3 Quote Driver: Qi10 10.5* ... Ventus Red Velocore 5R Fairway: Aerojet 3/5 ... Kai'li Blue 60R Hybrids: 430 Hybrid 22*... Steelfiber 780Hy DHy #4 ...
