A Hole-in-One Solution for Golf Carts: PowerStar’s Innovative 48 Volt Golf Cart Battery

POWERSTAR LAUNCHES REVOLUTIONARY 48 Volt 105 Amp Hour LIFEP04 LITHIUM BATTERY for GOLF CARTS

PowerStar, a national leader in the high-performance battery market, today announced the launch of its groundbreaking, 48 Volt 105AH LifePO4 Lithium Battery for golf carts. Designed to replace traditional 6 & 8 Volt golf cart batteries in 48 Volt golf cart systems, the new offering promises unmatched power, longevity, and efficiency that elevates the standards for electric golf carts everywhere on any course.

PowerStar's latest innovation utilizes Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) technology, known for its impressive energy density, superior thermal stability, and outstanding cycle life. With these advancements, the 48-volt 105AH (Amp Hour) battery guarantees an extended lifespan and remarkable durability, drastically reducing the frequency of battery replacements and lowering the total cost of ownership.

In addition to its impressive specs, PowerStar's new battery is engineered with the environment in mind. Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries are recognized for their environmentally friendly profile compared to other lithium-ion batteries. With zero emissions and recyclable components, the PowerStar battery is a cleaner, greener choice for golf courses and individual users.

Aiming to enhance the user experience, PowerStar has included a 22 amp charger with the new battery. This high-efficiency charger not only ensures a faster charge but also extends the battery life by employing advanced charging techniques, reducing downtime, and keeping the golf carts ready for action.

"With our new 48 volt 105 amp hour LiFePO4 battery, we're pushing the boundaries of what's possible in golf cart technology," said PowerStar's Founder, Donald Sweeney. "By combining increased performance, longevity, and environmental responsibility, we are setting a new industry standard and reinforcing our commitment to driving innovation in the battery market."

Keep in mind this battery is actually 51 Volts but is engineered with a specialized Battery Management System (BMS) specifically designed for 48 Volt applications like golf carts and other electric vehicles. 

The 48-volt 105-amp hour LiFePO4 Lithium Battery is now available at authorized PowerStar retailers and online at www.bigtimebattery.com.

Pettit’s Triple Biocide Antifouling Bottom Paints Lead the Way of Extremely Effective and Sustainable Antifouling Solutions

Pettit’s Triple Biocide Antifouling Bottom Paints Lead the Way of Extremely Effective and Sustainable...

TRIPLE BIOCIDES LEADING THE WAY FOR SUPERYACHT ANTIFOULING.

Innovation, Sustainability and Environmental Impact. These are the key features of Pettit's triple biocide products, Odyssey® Triton and Trinidad® XSR. These innovative products contain the proven biocides Cuprous Thiocyanate and ECONEA® (Tralopyril) to protect the bottom of any vessel against all types of hard fouling. To this is added Zinc Pyrithione, an extremely effective ingredient to protect against soft fouling organisms like algae, slime and hydroids. These three biocidal ingredients are incorporated into two different paint matrixes which yield a perfect balance of performance properties as demonstrated in field testing and in-field use over many years.

One of the keys to these products and any product in the marketplace is its sustainability. What are some indicators regarding sustainability of antifouling paints?  

  1. Products made from sustainable raw materials. Currently, Pettit® Odyssey Triton and Trinidad XSR contain approximately 10% sustainable raw materials by weight. That number is expected to grow in the future as we continue to explore new raw materials that have a smaller environmental footprint and a smaller effect on climate change.
  2. Products that last longer so that more labor and materials are not required to repaint at more frequent intervals. Odyssey Triton and Trinidad XSR proven performance will last far beyond other similar products in the marketplace.
  3. Products that save time and energy in their manufacture, transportation, application, and performance. Odyssey Triton and Trinidad XSR have a lower density than most antifouling paints on the market today, meaning less energy needed to ship the same amount of product as higher density antifouling paints. Odyssey Triton and Trinidad XSR easy, simple application means less time and effort needed to paint a vessel. Odyssey Triton and Trinidad XSR, as mentioned above, will outperform other antifouling paints on the market leading to huge savings in time and energy. 

Another key feature is their minimal environmental impact. The product VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) content is below 330 g/L, making it compliant in every air district in the nation. Higher VOC products contribute to the formation of ozone. 

Odyssey Triton multi-season ablative antifouling and Trinidad XSR multi-season hard antifouling not only provide excellent protection but are backed up by the industry's strongest warranty. The HD (Hull Defense 24 Month Limited Warranty) offers peace of mind to any boater in every harbor. This pairing makes Odyssey Triton and Trinidad XSR the most dependable and trusted antifouling paints for every boater and applicator in the industry.

Kane and Harry Kalas

Kane Kalas, son of Hall of Fame Philadelphia Phillies sportscaster Harry Kalas, has released his rendition of the "Eagles' Victory Song" to commemorate the team's place in the big game.

The "Eagles' Victory Song," commonly referred to as "Fly, Eagles Fly," has played a major part in Philadelphia sports culture since the 1950s. While several artists have covered the piece, Kane's version is unique, with a marching band feel and operatic vocals delivered by the classically-trained recording artist. Kane's "Eagles' Victory Song" evokes excitement and suspense; think John Philip Sousa, with maybe a splash of Mendelssohn.

The cover opens with a touchdown monologue voiced by legendary Philadelphia Eagles sportscaster—and the longest-tenured announcer in the NFL—Merrill Reese.

"The 'Eagles' Victory Song' is not only the fight song of the Philadelphia Eagles; in many ways, it is the fight song of the city of Philadelphia itself," says Kane.

"If you're ever in Philly when the Eagles are playing—it doesn't matter where—you're sure to know whenever the Eagles score a touchdown by the rumbling of 'E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES' from a chorus of fans throughout the city. There's nothing more electric than being among a sea of fans at the Linc during a game and joining them in the chant after the Eagles score."

In addition to his role as the Phillies play-by-play broadcaster, Kane's father, Harry Kalas, frequently broadcasted Eagles games for Westwood One. Kane vividly remembers watching the games with his father growing up and cheering on the Eagles. "I must've been four years old the first time I watched an Eagles game with my dad—the Eagles scored a touchdown, and he began to bellow the 'Eagles' Victory Song.' It was the first time I had heard it," Kane recalls. "He was a true homer. Dad often said there were no sports fans in the world as enthusiastic as Philadelphia fans; that's why he pledged to spend his entire broadcasting career in Philly."

Kane's forthcoming album High Hopes is lovingly dedicated to his father and the city of Philadelphia.

Women’s Golf Day Reaches New Heights and Countries

From Times Square to Tokyo, WGD brings global smiles

Women’s Golf Day Reaches New Heights and Countries
Women's Golf Day Acuschnet @NYSE Opening Bell(R)

The New York Stock Exchange welcomes Women's Golf Day & Acushnet May 31, 2023, to the podium. To honor the occasion, Elisa Gaudet, Founder, Women's Golf Day joined by Tara Dziedzic, NYSE Head of Listings U.S. Sectors, rings The Opening Bell\u00ae. @NYSE

The first weeklong Women's Golf Day (WGD) Celebration drew to a close as the last event finished at Moorea Green Pearl Golf Club in French Polynesia on Tuesday evening, the 6th of June. More women and girls were able to access these celebratory events in 2023 than ever before given the new weeklong format and the increase in the number of participating countries and venues. Over 1,300 locations in 84 countries have hosted WGD. Starting with WGD Palooza Digital Day and the NYSE Opening Bell, the celebration continued throughout the week. New and existing female golfers around the globe dressed in red and white to share their experiences on social media with a collective joy that perhaps can only be measured in smiles.

"Every year, we work to increase the number of facilities that host Women's Golf Day and it was very exciting to welcome the 139 courses from Japan and watch on social media in real time the impact WGD has on golf around the globe. I experienced first-hand how important it is to have new and existing female golfers participate in WGD events to build confidence, new friendships and skills that do last a lifetime. Our goal is to create more opportunities and unity and we are achieving that on a global level," commented Elisa Gaudet, Founder of Women's Golf Day.

She continued, "Growing demand for additional days from host locations prompted us to expand to a weeklong format, resulting in impactful and significant activation on each day this week. Starting on May 30th with the WGD Palooza digital day and May 31st ringing the opening bell at the NYSE with Acushnet (Titleist and FootJoy). It is important to have retail engagement and in-store activation from both PGA TOUR Superstore and Golf Town as well as championship courses around the world hosting events. Having lived in NYC for 10 years, it is thrilling to see WGD and Acushnet billboards running for a few weeks in Times Square and Silicon Valley. This support includes our partners, RBC, who are hosting the RBC Canadian Open this week."

Key highlights of Women's Golf Day 2023 included:

  • WGD Palooza - a specially curated USGA Museum Tour, Instruction from Callaway and Titleist players, an interview with founding members of Project Ukraine and giveaways from WGD partners, including The USGA, PGA, R&A, Callaway, Titleist, FootJoy, PGA TOUR Superstore (PGATSS), Imperial, Marco Simone, and Make Golf Your Thing

  • Japan Growth - after running three events in 2022, WGD and The Japanese Golf Federation worked in collaboration to grow the number of host locations in Japan from three to 139 in under 12 months
