Do you get extended run time with them like they say. I have been researching them and they sound good. They are expensive so I don’t want to make a mistake. I am running a 21 foot boat with a terrova 80lbs so I need to buy two for 24 volt. Found some for $450 apiece. I currently carry extra batteries on my boat so I can spend more time on the water.
Thanks for any information.
I run Lithiums with my Ulterra 80Lb you want to go with 2 100AH 12V not the 24V batteries many chargers will work with Lithium if they have an AGM charging profile I use a Minnkota PC 345 works great or you can purchase a Lithium specific charger. I have Ionic they have bluetooth app so you can see exactly what your batteries are sitting at.
I am on year 3 and have had 0 issues
That’s great information. That is what I am looking to purchase 2 100AH. Have you noticed a longer run time on them?
Yes the run time is longer, and as Rocky noted they run at full power right to the end and then they shut down.
