I am running Elite TI on the dash and bow. Just added a HDS live 12 with active target to the bow also. My cranking battery is a Interstate AGM 31, will it be enough to power electronics and live wells all day and still have enough to crank boat at end of day? If not, what battery should I upgrade to?
It should do the job if it is healthy. Always carry a jump pack and/or jumper cables.

Just replaced my battery. I have 2 9" LOWRANCE and a 1 2" LOWRANCE with AT. Went with an X2 agm battery. It does a good job of supplying power for my setup. I would recommend it. Bigger is better.

Yes, you should be fine if the battery is good.Originally Posted by Bassman13
If you want to look into lithiums keep us in mind
Thats the battery my boat came with never had a issue .
No, it will probably not in the long run. It seems they don’t state number of cycles versus state of charge. So you should guess it is around 30-ish percent somewhere. 30Ah is a bit low for the the draw you describe, so you will be slowly killing your battery due to sulfatation unless you regularly run the outboard enough to top up the battery during your day.
