DROK is one of the leading brands in the golf cart battery meter business and this Digital Battery Capacity Tester does complete justice to their brand name. Firstly, it is a multi-functional meter, meaning, it displays the temperature along with the battery capacity and voltage. This product also comes with an on/off switch, which is usually missing in most traditional battery meters.

The company has also provided a waterproof and dustproof back cover for extra protection and durability. In case of extremely low voltage, this battery meter will sound an alarm, a brilliant feature. You can use it for any battery ranging from 10V to 100V, which includes most standard golf cart batteries like 12v, 36v, 24v, 48v, 60v, 72v, and 96v variants. Most notably, this meter is compatible with all battery types, including, Li-ion, Lead Acid, lithium iron phosphate battery, and Ni-MH battery.

BA-BOLING is known for making simple yet highly effective components for several automobiles. This battery indicator fits perfectly into this criteria. Unlike the DROK battery meter, this one is a little selective about its compatible batteries and voltage, as it works only with Lead Acid batteries, and that too having a voltage reading of 48 Volts. But what it lacks in versatility, it more than makes up for in durability and robustness. 

This BA-BOLING battery meter is made from high-quality ABS material and has an IP65 weather-resistance rating. The display is fairly simple yet very convenient. It has 10 LED segment bar graph that are color-coded for better visibility. Only one of the LEDs will light up to indicate the status. Moreover, it is reasonably easy to install and you’ll be up and running in no time. 

The Frienda Battery meter is a budget option but has all the necessary features of a high-quality golf cart battery meter. The state of the art alarm system will alert you whenever your battery capacity is less than 20%, thus protecting you in critical situations. For display, it has a waterproof PVC screen with bright blue light which shows the numerical value of battery capacity and voltage.

This Frienda Battery Meter is highly versatile as it is compatible with most voltages, including 12v, 24v, 36v, 48v and 72v. Moreover, it works perfectly with Lead Acid, Li-ion, ternary lithium battery, and water battery. However, it is not compatible with lithium iron phosphate batteries, 1 – 2 lithium batteries in series, and over 15 lithium-ion batteries in series.

Runleader Battery Meters are known throughout the world for their superior quality and brand value. This Multifunction battery meter is versatile and compatible with all well-known battery types, including Lead Acid, Li-ion, and Lithium iron phosphate batteries from voltages 12v to 48v. This is one of the best golf cart battery meters in terms of versatility. This battery meter is protected against water and dust as it comes with an  IP65, CE ROHS certification and a 2-year warranty.

Unlike similar products, this multifunction battery meter comes in a round shape and has a 10-bar multicolored LED graph. There is also an additional display with an hour meter that shows the numerical value of total hours and service timers. If you’re wondering about the alarm, Runleader has kept that in mind as well. This battery meter allows you to set your personal warning value, and the alarm will go off once that value is reached. 

AIMILAR 48 Volt Battery Indicator is compatible with Lead Acid Batteries of 48 voltage. You can use it in all sorts of vehicles, including your golf cart, jet ski, and motorcycles. However, for some reason, this particular battery meter will not work with EZ Go golf carts and Trojan brand batteries. If you have those, you might want to skip buying this product. 

The most notable features of AIMILAR battery indicator are its brilliant visibility and super easy installation. Any person who is comfortable working with wires can do it easily. Moreover, it has a bright red LED bar graph that is perfectly visible in all lighting conditions. The only parameter where this battery meter falters is the protective measures, as it is not waterproof nor dustproof.

This is the second entry in this list from Runleader and is equally deserving of a mention as the previous one. This is one of the best golf cart battery meters and it comes in a unique round structure a digital hour meter, and an LED graph. The hour meter is on an LCD screen and shows the numerical value of total hours which is very convenient. While the LED graph is color-coded and has 10 LED segments that show the current battery status.

Moreover, the company has made sure to boost the security by providing IP65; CE RoHS certification, making it resistant to dust and water. They also provide a 2-year warranty. Also, the installation is pretty straightforward. This Runleader battery meter is compatible with all golf carts but only works with Lead Acid batteries, which is its only drawback. 

The Stone River Battery Meter has a more of a retro design unlike any other entry in this list. It has a circular shape and a dial similar to a clock with a pointer that indicates the current battery capacity. It is compatible with most battery types having a voltage reading of 48 Volts. Due to its retro design, it is one of the easiest to install battery meters. 

The manufacturing is done entirely in the US, and the construction is done from heavy-duty metal that is waterproof and dustproof. This Stone River meter is an analog battery meter, meaning it does not show the numerical value or has a LED graph, only a pointer, that gives you an approximated idea of the battery capacity. It can also be tricky to see the status in poorly lit conditions as it does not have an internal light source.

DROK makes its second entry in the list with the Marine battery meter. It is quite similar to their previous entry and is loaded with several impressive features. One of these brilliant features is an on/off switch to toggle the backlight, which is usually unheard of in most battery meters. Another feature is the dual setting, one that shows battery capacity and voltage, and the other shows the temperature.

Moreover, the Marine is highly versatile, you can use it for all battery types ranging from 10v to 100v, including lithium battery, lead-acid battery, lithium iron phosphate battery, and Ni MH battery. The only critical components missing from this meter are protective measures like water and dust proofing, and an alarm system.

HUSUKU has made this LED battery meter specifically for people who use 48V batteries. Also, this meter only works with a Lead-Acid battery, which essentially means it doesn’t rank well in terms of versatility. However, the company makes up for it by providing world-class protection against dust and water, owing to the high-quality ABS material and IP65 weather-resistant rating.

This HUSUKU battery meter has a 10 segment LED graph for display. The graph is color-coded with 7 bars as green, 2 yellow, and the last one red. At any given time, only one LED will light up indicating the battery status. This type of display will not show you the battery voltage, something you would expect at such a price.

DROK makes the final entry into the list with this budget option. This Blue Back-light LCD meter is a simple-looking, modestly priced but very effective option if you don’t want a meter overloaded with features. It has a brilliant display that shows the battery status and provides the numerical value of the running battery percentage. Also, it is compatible with all standard battery types and can support voltages of 12v, 24v, 36v, and 48v.

However, as it is a budget device, it lacks several features found in other options. One of the most noticeable omission is the protective cover, which is something DROK is known for. This makes it vulnerable to damage from water and dust. It also does not have any alarm system or on/off switches.
