alright im putting another system in a golf cart, the last golf cart was 36 volts and used 6 6volt bats now this other golf cart is 48 volts and has 6 8volt bats, i just used 2 of the 6volts and wired them to get 12 volts out of them and it worked great but on this one if i do that i will have 16 volts so does anyone know if this is too much for a cdplayer and amp and if it is too much what can i use to regulate the voltage down to 14.4 or so? thanks everyone.

You'll need a DC-DC converter (not a transformer) if you want to step down from 48. I'm looking into it and I've only found a 24volt-12volt one so far.

that one is a little light duty because i think its gonna have to run a sub amp that is about 500 watts, i think this one will work ill just have to wire 3 8volt bats together http://www.powersupplydepot.com/power_s ... 457-PS.asp but thanks for the website, i might need 2 of these to keep up with the amp and deck.
