What is the difference between Black Mule Systems and other powered wheels?
The main difference is how the wheels are powered.
Other drive systems use powered motor hubs inside the wheels, similar to those used for electric scooters.
The Black Mule solution was designed around a potent, single axle motor, built for high torque with a differential. This results in a system that is more powerful by design, but also smoother and easier to control under load. The motor clutch actuates a built in brake for more control and safety, and both the motor and brake are fully sealed from the elements for added security.
How do I install the Black Mule system?
The installation depends on the kind of cart you have. Our goal is that you don't have to drill your nice cart in order to mount the systes. So we've created different mounting solution for different carts. We will give you detailed instructions on how to mount it. If you are in Los Angeles area, bring your cart and we will mount it for you free of charge!
What kind of battery do we use?
We use 2 x12V sealed lead acid batteries (connected in series). They are more affordable than Lithium batteries, and safer as well since they don't have the risk of exploding.
Can I use Block Battery to power the system?
Not recomendable. If the carts is heavy and the motor needs to pull a lot of power from the battery, the breaker on the batteries may get tripped and will shut dow the battery
