Does anybody run the smaller 24 series batteries for your trolling motor? If so how so you like them and any issues running them all day?

I think 27 is the smallest I have heard of anyone using for trollers if they're fishing all day, and those folks usually upgrade at some point.

it is all about reserve capacity, check the difference between a 24 and 27 then a 31.
I run 3 grp 27 dekas, had a 112 fortrex and now a garmin force on 36v. have yet to notice a drop in power and I use it a lot when on the water.
