36V 100Ah LiFePO4
The no-compromise 36V bank. 3,840Wh is double the 50Ah unit — a full day of heavy spot-lock in wind or long trolling runs with margin to spare — and its 100A BMS never limits the motor. One 61 lb battery replaces three lead-acids at nearly triple the usable energy. Note the Group 8D case: check your battery compartment fits 20.5" × 10.6".

36V lithium needs a 43.8V LiFePO4 charger — no standard marine charger covers it. This waterproof 25A unit refills even this 100Ah battery in about 4 hours.

Why LiFePO4 beats lead-acid
- It outlasts 8–10 lead-acid batteries. A deep-cycle lead-acid gives you 300–500 cycles; this battery is rated for 4,000+. Over a decade of fishing, lead-acid costs more in replacements alone — before you count the Saturdays lost to a dead bank.
- All of its capacity is usable. Draining lead-acid past ~50% wrecks it, so a "100Ah" lead-acid is really a 50Ah battery. LiFePO4 delivers essentially its full rating.
- Full thrust to the last cast. Lead-acid voltage sags as it drains — your motor gets weaker all day. LiFePO4 holds voltage nearly flat, so the motor pulls the same at 4pm as it did at first light.
- A fraction of the weight in the bow — where weight matters most for how the boat rides. See the spec table above for the exact numbers versus the lead-acid bank this replaces.
Why we recommend LiTime
- Purpose-built trolling line — these are LiTime's TM/marine models: IP65-sealed, shock-rated, with low-temperature protection built into the BMS. Not a repackaged RV battery.
- Dedicated-voltage design — one battery instead of a series bank means no wiring to get wrong and no mismatched batteries aging each other.
- 5-year warranty, US support — LiTime is one of the largest-volume LiFePO4 brands, ships from US warehouses, and stands behind the battery directly.
- Roughly half the price of boutique brands for the same chemistry and a comparable warranty. We'd rather you spend the difference on fuel.
Mounting the motor too?
