Make sure that the battery is 12V lifepo4 battery damaged or old, or out of charge. If any of these given conditions occur, you will not get the ideal rated amp-hours, reducing the runtime. Lithium marine deep cycle batteries, in general, is fast, lightweight, and extremely easy to use. The Ionic Lithium Marine Batteries charge faster than a standard lead-acid battery and can be fully charged within 2 hours; it is even longer-lasting.

Batteries are pretty heavy, ranging from pounds, and on a fishing vessel, chances are you’ll have at least two. On top of that, the size is smaller and more portable, allowing for use in almost any boat. The weight is 43.5 pounds, and the dimensions are 10×6.75×7.8 inches. Flooded wet-cell batteries are less expensive, but they don’t perform as well as the other choices. Wet cell batteries can spill acid, so they don’t stand up to vibration well and have to be mounted in a level position.

For electric trolling motors you want a battery (or batteries) with ‘Ah’ ratings – this means they are designed to deep cycle (regularly discharge over a long period and then recharge). CCA stands for Cold Cranking Amps which refers to what power a battery can provide for starting diesel or gasoline engines. The 24V trolling motor battery is designed for 24V trolling motors, delivering max power for trolling motors up to 100 lbs of thrust with a continuous 60A discharge current. The DL+ 135Ah battery is built with Dakota Lithium’s legendary LiFePO4 cells. 5,000+ recharge cycles (roughly 5 year lifespan at daily use) vs. 500 for other lithium batteries or lead acid. Internal even heat tech provides optimal performance down to minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit (for winter warriors).

The use of absorbed glass mat and it’s fully sealed, maintenance-free features offer boaters a superior product. The VMAX packs its thick plates tightly together and completely seals the gaps between with its unique style of absorbed glass mat. The battery is then fully sealed and self-contained, meaning no hazardous material to worry about.

The most common ones are lead-acid batteries, AGM batteries, and Lithium-ion batteries. Lithium batteries, on the other hand, can be regularly discharged to 80% and still last hold the charge after 5 and more years. Remember to factor in any additional electrical equipment that may be using power from the battery while trolling.

Trolling motors with 80 pounds of thrust are most often found on larger boats such as bass boats, pontoons, and small center console fishing boats. They are powered by two 12 volt batteries wired in series for 24 volts in total. I ran a trolling motor the other day on a windy day for about 4 hours. When I got off the water and checked the charge (part of my testing), I had used hardly anything for power. I hooked it up to my 36V 18A Dakota Lithium Charger, and in 8 minutes my batteries were fully charged.

Tracker Lithium 12 Volt 60 Ah Battery

It charges the battery fast enough to be back on the water in about 4 hours. We’ve also tested the 24V 80Ah battery as a single battery for a 24-volt trolling motor, and it’s been super impressive as well. The batteries are extremely well made, manage power terrifically and charge fast. We are reassured that any issue that might come up will be handled swiftly. Now, if your motor draws 40 Amps at full speed, those 40Ah will power your motor for 1 hour. Some battery manufacturers insist on using dedicated lithium battery chargers.
