    Took the plunge & went with Ionic Lithium Ion Batteries

    I need to thank Andy at Drewcraft.com (Ionic Lithium Ion Batteries) & Van Foster at Bass Boat Technologies (Battery trays) for their help in getting this system set up. Got out today & installed the five Ionics & trays. Replaced five AGM 31's and a four bank Dual Pro 4 x 15A charger with the Ionics & Ionic charger. Reduced weight by about 280 lbs with the new system.
    Here's some pics of the before and after project.

    Smart man getting dual cranking batteries for your electronic setup. I’ll be curious to see how drawn down they are after a full day on the water.

    Running five big graphs with Mega 360, Live and Livescope so will I. Holy cow that's a lot of electronics.
