[QUOTE="thill, post: 499021, member: 4972"] My Group 29 lead acid trolling motor battery is starting to slow down. For the last few years, I could fish a long day with no problem. Now, it's getting weak by the afternoon. It's time to replace, and I'm considering lithium. I've heard that you get double the useable charge from lithium. So a 50A lithium will run your motor as long as a 100A lead acid battery, in theory. [B][U]Questions[/U][/B] 1. Is this true about double the runtime per rated amps? 2. Do any of you run a 50AH battery for your TM? 3. If so, how long does it last for you? Happy with it? Please let me know what you think. Trying to figure out whether the extra cost is worth it. I'm also thinking that if I eventually buy two 50 AH, I can use them for my 24V motor on my other boat. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
