Eco Battery in an Icon Golf Cart Explained
At The Golf Cart Farm, we’re committed to helping you get the best performance out of your Icon golf cart. Upgrading to an Eco Battery is one of the smartest moves you can make for improved efficiency, reliability, and long-lasting power. Here’s everything you need to know about choosing the right battery and parts, and ensuring your cart is ready to go.
Our Recommended Battery Options:
For your Icon golf cart, we highly recommend the 48V 105Ah or the 48V 160Ah Eco Battery. These options provide the perfect balance of power and capacity, ensuring your cart runs at peak performance whether you’re cruising the neighborhood or hitting the links.
Understanding Which Battery and Parts Are Needed:
Upgrading to an Eco Battery requires specific components based on the year and controller type of your Icon golf cart. Here’s a breakdown:
-
2017-2020 Models:
-
Equipped with the NEOS controller.
-
No programming is required when upgrading the battery.
-
-
2021 Model:
-
A split year for controllers, meaning your cart could have either a NEOS or an Icon controller.
-
If your cart has the Icon controller, programming with the Tech Tool will be necessary.
-
-
2022 and Later Models:
-
All carts have the Icon controller and will require the Tech Tool for programming.
-
Programming Requirements:
For carts equipped with the Icon controller (2021-2024):

Data logging and diagnostics for ongoing performance monitoring.
