Starweld16 Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 Has anyone had any experience running 1 or 3 of theses batteries for there trolling motor? I have a 36 volt 112 lb thrust Minn Kota ulterra and pondering changing to them from my interstates.

Fishlips Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 I made the switch this spring and I only have a 24v system. Last year I was only getting 6-8hrs on a full charge and now I'm getting atleast 16hrs (maybe more)of running time. The motor has full power to unit right till it dies but when the batteries die it is stops instantly, no gradual degradation in batteries. Saves alot of weight too as both my batteries weigh less than 26lbs. I'm happy with them so far. Also for charging it only takes less than 2.5 hrs from dead to fully charged, I got a 30amp charger though. I will see how the season goes as I'm on the water almost every day.Sent from my LM-Q910 using Lake Erie United Mobile App Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starweld16 Posted June 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Not familiar with a quick release? Where and how do I get one? I had to take mine apart one time and it was a real pain especially out in the water Sent from my iPhone using Lake Erie United Mobile App 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
