X2 AGM- won’t fool with it again My X2 couldn't hang with my graph setup. Splurge the $200 more and get an Ionic 125a and not fool with it again for an even longer time.

2014 Pro XS 250 2 stroke, 2014 Ranger Z521c, Last year new HDS 12 carbon on console, new HDS 12 carbon on bow and active target, new Helix 12 on bow for 360. Replaced starter battery with biggest x2 agm. Weighs about 70 pounds. I think it is 125 ah plus. Couldn't last a day. Engine wouldnt start after about 5 hours. Added Dakota Lithium 60 ah as dedicated bow HDS and active target power. No more problems and active target is quite a bit clearer. Active target uses lots of power.

The dedicated battery is the way to go. This! I have an Iconic lithium for my electronics and an X2 AGM cranking. The Iconic is great, buy something other than an X2 though.

Thank you LFA17, because this helps a lot since you have a 2 stroke. I want to make sure I get it right the first time.
