I use the lithium Pros for several reasons.
Weight savings, running a Honda. So I have better hole shot and less drafts. A
Running power poles I have more room in the beige only 3 batteries for 36 volt trolling motor and cranking.
Faster charging, sometimes the light turn green before I get the cover on the boat.
I have run them since 2012, several different sets, never had a fire. Know where all my old boats are and none have burned up!
