Solar seems like a great option for golf carts, but roof space is limited. This is no problem with the Genasun GVB-8-WP, our waterproof boost charge controller designed specifically for the 36V or 48V system in your golf cart. Just pick the solar panel that fits the roof best and let our voltage-boosting controller do the rest to charge your batteries.

The Genasun GVB-8-WP is a unique MPPT solar controller that boosts the voltage output of your solar panels up to 48V. It has been developed for golf carts, or any other electric vehicles. It’s waterproof, which means total protection against rain and moisture. No need to worry about washing your golf cart—these controllers can be hosed down!

Thanks to the special Genasun Boost technology, the GVB-8-WP will work to power your system from dawn to dusk, even when light isn’t optimal! When batteries are discharged to low levels, it takes a toll on their longevity and health. Deeper discharges mean fewer charging cycles and a shortened battery lifetime.

Installing our SunBender solar kit Golf Cart on your golf cart with the Genasun Boost controller solves these problems. Charging while you drive means more daily range and healthier, longer life for your batteries. That’s a win-win!

The SunBender solar kit Golf Cart is available with a 108W or 164W semi-flex solar panel made with Maxeon/SunPower solar PV-cell and the Genasun boost GVB-8-WP-GC with plug&play connectors for any type or lead acid or lithium batteries.

The GVB-8-WP is available for the following batteries:

⁽¹⁾ charge voltage 4.17V per cell, see article Li-ion cells
⁽²⁾ charge voltage 3.55V per cell, see article LiFePo₄ cells
