We've looked at electric buggies on and off for years, but we just couldn't pull the trigger on one. Battery life would be my biggest question. If you do go that route, I might take a close look at the chargers that come with the buggy. A good charger will save you money in the long run. Lester's used to be the standard, but I'm not sure that's the case anymore.
