    Question ReLion RB100-HP cranking/electronics battery experince

    I have been reading through many older posts on Lithium batteries. I am heavily leaning toward ReLion since I need new batteries in my boat this year. For those who own and use a ReLion RB100-HP for their main starting battery and electronics/pumps battery, have you EVER run out of juice in a long day? How about over two days without a charge?

    From what I understand the HP designation is what makes it suitable for a cranking battery. I had originally ordered a RB100 for my cranking battery and the BMS would shut it down when trying to crank a 250 Optimax...oddly enough an RB80 with an obviously different BMS starts my Opti fine and I’ve never depleted to zero charge running 3 graphs..poles... pumps etc...I would think the 100HP would be a beast.

    I have 2 Lowrance HDS Carbon’s at the helm, a 16” Live at the bow and a 10” Garmin with LiveScope. I’ve never ran out of juice with the Relion 100 HP.
