LiTime 12V 50Ah LiFePO4 Battery Bluetooth Low-Temp Protection Buit in 50A BMS, Deep Cycle Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery Perfect for Trolling Motors, Yacht, Marine, Boat, Fishing Finder (2)

After doing a ton of research on Batteries for my Nitro Bass Boat to run my Brushed 36v Minnkota Ultrex I settled in on Li Time. For a number of reasons fist and foremost all the reviews I found said the customer service was second to none. That was very important to me. I thankfully have not had to use customer service so far for any issues but they have reached out to me every step of the way from the order to the receipt of the batteries (in part because I left them sitting in my cart on their website opting to buy through Amazon instead). They have been very helpful even providing a discount code for future purchases. Second was price vs. quality and functionality. The price is less than half of the other big brands that market to bass fisherman and the features and spec's of these batteries are all the same or at least similar most notably the BMS system. The one thing I noticed was some said that this BMS did not have a balancing system as other do. I solved that with a multibank charger and putting a disconnect between each battery to isolate them when charging. Disconnects are simple to install and only $20 each on amazon. My only complaint is that these batteries arrived asleep and had to be woken up by using the force mode on the Noco GenPro 4 bank charger I purchased. My complaint is not that they arrived in that state but that there was no note or disclaimer on the battery that this was the case. Nor any instructions on how to wake them up. It took a lot of time researching what was going on and how to wake them up. Once I got it figured out it was solved in minutes. I have only ran them once for a 5 hour fishing day on the Upper Chesapeake bay. Wind was moderate and the tide was moving. I only used 10% of the 100 ah batteries in those 5 hours. The real test will come when I start putting 8-12 hour days in on the St. Lawrence river the rest of the season...however based on the first test I might have gotten away with the 50 ah like some of my friends are running in other brands. The ones I purchased have the BMS that connects to the mobile app. which is great. I have an Ionic running one Garmin 10" and my LS. The Li Time app. works similar to the Ionic app. As an added bonus the weight reduction from the AGM's I was running significantly improved my hole shot and provided 4 mph faster speeds on the top end (2012 Nitro Z8 with 225hp proxs). I did find a disclaimer online from Minn Kota warning costumers to only run brushed motors at 85% speed when using Lithium batteries of any kind. My understanding is that this is due to the brushed motor being sensitive to the higher voltage Lithiums deliver. I found another disclaimer saying you could run it at 100% but limit the use at 1005 to less than 10 min continuously. I ran mine at 100% for short bursts with no issues so far. I have a friend that fishes the St. Lawrence river weekly and purchased these same 100 ah batteries (before they offered the BMS with the phone app.) He has been running them since April on his 24 volt brushed Ultrex with no issues at all and is very happy with the batteries. Long review, but I was unable to find any detailed reviews of people specifically using these batteries on bass boats running brushed Ultrex motors. So I hope this helps the next guy looking at these for that application.

I did my due diligence in reviewing lithium batteries and decided to go with LiTime lithium batteries. The shipping was fast and they arrived in 3 or 4 days. I purchased two group 24, 100 ah batteries for my Minn Kota 80 lb thrust trolling motor on my 198 DLV Carolina Skiff. I originally had purchased 6 years ago VMax AGM batteries and they were done three weeks ago. So I charged the batteries and after the charge I wired them pos to pos, neg to neg as required in the directions.Twice I took the boat out with the new batteries and fished from 8 am to 3 pm with about 1 1/2 hr of using my main motor traveling. The batteries worked GREAT. Bringing the boat to my storage yard I parked it and returned early the next day to hook up my two 100 watt solar panels to charge the batteries. Upon hooking up the batteries, my charge controller indicated that the batteries were 100% charged. For some reason I thought this was an error because the VMAX AGM batteries were always discharged at least 40% after a day on the water. I again went fishing the week later and this time leaving the dock at 7 am and arriving at the dock at 1 pm using the trolling motor for about 5 1/2 hours. The next day I hooked up my solar panels to charge the batteries and AGAIN the charge controller indicated the batteries were 100% charged. I called Renology who sold me the charge controller and went over my connection and battery parameters and what I had was correct. I am TOTALLY SATISFIED AND EXCITED about these batteries and so glad I purchased these LiTime batteries. I would also like to add that these batteries are lithium ion batteries not just lithium which are safer than plain lithium batteries. I highly recommend these batteries with a 5 years warranty.

These batteries are dedicated to my trolling motor. I replaced my old AGM batteries with these lithium batteries. I'm not a tournament fisherman, I fish mainly in the spring and fall for crappie. I recently used them for about 5 hours of fishing and trolling with my Garmin Force. When I got home and put them on the charger, they still had half charge. These batteries are light weight and fit in the same holder as my older batteries. In my opinion they are as good as some of the more expensive batteries with the same AHs. I would recommend these to a friend that wants a quality battery at an affordable price. Since I'm a vacation fisherman I expect to get many years of service.

These batteries are top of the line. I couldn't complain about them if I had too. They work great. The light weight scared us all with the fake batteries on the market but the quality is second to none.

After replacing my two older wet cell batteries for my trolling motor with these I was able to use just one battery for all day long fishing. In the past I would struggle to get 6 hours of good trolling before running out of battery. After fully charging these batteries they are awesome. I did replace my on board charger during this change. It has been well worth while. The weight savings is incredible as well. After a full day trolling and fishing the one battery I was using was only less than 25 percent depleted. Now that this is working well I just change back and forth between batteries each trip out. I have bought a 50 amp hr battery just for the boat live wells and graph etc. I still need to require some stuff but these batteries are the way to go. I also use one on my kayak now since it is much lighter and 1/3 more capacity than my wet cell. Absolutely well worth the investment.

I swapped out 4 AGM batteries for these lithium batteries. I have been really happy with their quick charging and customer support. They weigh half as much as the comparable AGM battery. The app is pretty simple to use and I like the SOC info it provides.

Ordered two 12v 100 ah tm for my boat a couple months ago. Hooked them up to run my trolling motor and most of my accessories. I have ran a couple dozen day trips so far relying on my trolling motor most of the day. My trolling motor has ran strong every trip all day. I would buy again.
