    Lithium battery questions

    I am considering switching from agm batteries to lithium for my 36V trolling motor. What is the best set up? I was thinking about going with 3 12V 100 AH lithium batteries or is there better options?

    3-12v100amp is the best option in my opinion. I've been installing lots of them lately. If you're in Chicago I'm north by the Fox chain if you need any help

    I think it really depends what charger you have, the best setup in my opinion is the 2 Impulse lithium 36v- 40ah in parallel with the power pole charge with there starting battery, but also they have the 60ah or the 100ah with the NOCO charger that I hear really good things about also.. I think it really depends where you are and how you fish, give Impulse a call and ask for Bill!

    I just bought Ionic 50AH for $300 a battery. Hard to beat. More than enough for a day of fishing

    feel free to contact me I would be happy to go over all the options based on your fishing style, size boat, time on the water etc. I can also explain the benefits of Impulse lithium over the other brands out there along with offering you a BBC discount.

    I have been running the Ionic 50ah on my 36 Volt Ghost tm, since March i have yet to run it down below 90% fishing 9-10 per day. I also have a 125ah running the HDS 12 Live and one GARMIN 106 sv, i have ran it down to 51% more than once but i did not put anything on standby. I have a Ionic 36 colt charger for all four batteries, very easy to keep track of charge percentage threw my iPhone. I got mine threw Drewcraft ( https//www.drewcraft.com) (Andy) who is a sponsor on BBC, he also applied a BBC discount and was very helpful with all my questions. I run a CX 20 with a 250 Merc just so you know it's a big boat. If i was starting from scratch tomorrow with new batteries i wouldn't change a thing.
