F1 Lithium Technical

The design team at Stewart Golf were given carte blanche to create the F1 Lithium, including all internal systems as well as folding mechanisms and aesthetics.

 

Lithium Ion Battery

The new Li-Ion battery is a custom made, 36V pack that is just one-third of the size of the X3R battery, and over 80% lighter at just over 2kg. Our tests show that the battery is capable of 27 holes and possibly more depending on conditions, although we can only guarantee 18 holes (please see notes on factors affecting battery life). The new battery monitor accurately shows how much power you have left at all times.

 

36 Volt Electronics System

The new system is more efficient, cooler running and better matched to Li-Ion technology than the more conventional 12V system. The F1 Lithium uses an enhanced version of the NASA-derived software that has won the X3R it's enviable reputation.

 

New Magnesium Alloy Wheels

The all new alloy wheel design features a simplified quick release mechanism and a thick tyre for quiet running on hard surfaces. Production models will also feature a tread for grip on the golf course.

 

New LCD Screen

The LCD screen on the rear cover shows an accurate battery monitor and other essential messages when necessary, including telling the user when to change their handset battery.

 

Weights & Measures

The new F1 Lithium weighs just 12kg, with the battery just an additional 2kg. Folded dimensions with the wheels attached are just 66cm (wide), 47cm (high) and 31.9cm (deep). The F1 Lithium stands up straight when folded, making the footprint just one third of the X3R.

 

Many customers will be pleased to hear that when folded, the F1 chassis is small enough to fit in the front bin of even the smallest Porsche 911 (the 997 Carrera 4S), and the Audi R8. The F1 chassis and bag will both fit in to the boot of the Bentley GTC.
