Battery recommendation

[Fidgetcranker]

Don’t be cheap when it comes to the batteries. X2 is only way to go! If you think your gonna get a RELIABLE battery to do what you want with all you have said your gonna be spending $300. Just sayin! Don’t skimp on the battery you will 100% regret it. You asked for the recommendation and about 5 people are telling you the same thing. I’d listen and pony up the cash!

how would a optima blue top 31 work on a 921 PHX with a 250 pro xs?

I’m actually having a hard time during tournaments keeping my cranking battery charged. I’m running all 4 pumps most of the day, 3d structure scan. Hds16 12 12 and solix 12. 360 imaging. Power poles. Hydrowave. I’m running the north star 31 agm now and I have killed it already and it’s a month old. If you don’t fish tournaments and run 2 hds9s you will likely be fine with any battery because that draws about 4 amps an hour probably. I think I’m somewhere around 16 amps an hour right now. Start really loading the boat out with electonics and you will find that really no battery is too big. I honestly need a 2nd cranking battery in parallel but I don’t have room unless I get 2 36v lithium’s.

My boat is in the shop because it went into guardian mode, mechanic just called me and said it went below 11 volts and that triggered guardian. Anyone else ever have that happen? 921phx 250 pro xs.

Might as well break out the wallet and get a north star have been fighting low voltage alarms on graphs with batteries listed above until I got a 31 north star

My 2016 721 has a 27 group interstate i have had to replace this battery at 1 year 1 month. Interstate said nothing was wrong the next time out it started 2 times the next time out before it died. They finally replaced it threw my dealer. That replacement is 1 year 2 months old and now. When I run my hds 7 and 9 and turn on 1 aerator or recirculation pump my graphs shut off with in 2 minutes. Thought it was possibly one pump or switch that was causing this but checked each switch all done the same. i can run pumps all day graphs all day motor fires right off but cant run the 2 together. Im guessing ny battery shot craps again. will the group 31 above fit in my 721 if i change the battery tray?

I have a 2017 stratos with 250 proxs, the boat is two years old and it came with interstate Batteries, I have a 27 interstate that came in the boat and I run 2 hds 12’s hydrowave, power poles and pumps all day and that battery has never dropped below 11.8 v and I use my power poles a lot throughout the day because I live in south Louisiana, you have to charge your boat as soon as you get home and put distilled water in it once a month and the battery will last years
