Light Installation

I have a 2003 48 Volt Club Car. The fellow I bought it from had installed a 12 volt light. I had some repair on the cart and "they" diconnected the lights. There was no converter for the 12 volt light and now I am wondering how the prior owner had it connected to the batteries. I connected it to one 8 volt battery but it was way dim. Before it was disconnected it was super bright. I know it was not possible for it to pull the full 48 volts so is there a secret I am not aware of? The headlight was a Peterson 507 12 volt light and is fairly common. Any help is appreciated.

Welcome to Cartaholics.

It sounds like they had the light wired to two batteries for 16 volts. Thats probably why it was bright.
