    Ultrex 80/24volt loss of power

    Guys, my ultrex has been a game changer for me and my guide service.
    question is after 18 months of use I have hardley any mid-range power, I might be a leadfood but I have to start in the higher range now and will feel a power loss in a couple hours of use.
    I just put in two brand new grp 31 agm's and its still a dog. Wires are direct wired 6 gage, and show no sign of electrectralious.
    I put in a lot more hours than the normal angler and is it possible its worn out ?

    It’s not even close to being worn out! Contact Jones trolling motor.

    Don't think it's worn out after this much use, however, you could be developing short brushes or possibly have some connections working loose in the lower unit. It should be sent to an ASC
