Had Duracell on my golf cart and they only lasted 2 years. Running Trojans now. Have always had good luck with Continental on my boat. My last set lasted 5 years! and I fish 2-3 days a week. You can g et them at ABC and they won't break the bank. JMO..

Thanks for the recommendations fellas! I never understand buying 200 each batteries that MIGHT hopefully last 2-3-4 years at best. Lithiums are dropping in price fast, there are some 50ah lifepro4 lithiums for $350 each now, they should last you over 20 years if you fish every single day, but even if they only last 8 years they will have performed better than agm for all 7 of the 8.. 100ah lithium are down to 599 if you really wanted absolute over kill for your tm. Lithium for your start battery is still a bit expensive, as they are harder to find still. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=50ah+lithium+battery+12+volt&crid=G023RIQCKZSB&sprefix=50+ah+lithiu%2Caps%2C406&ref=nb_sb_ss_sc_1_12

The link I posted on page one is a battery several pros are running without any issues. You just don’t hear them talk about them cause they don’t get paid to. Anything over a 50ah 12v troller is a waste when u put them all together.

Duracell 31 AGM from sam's club for trolling motor and an Odyssey pc2150 cranking dual purpose This is what I would run. If your not running 4 graphs and live scope you can get away with using all Duracell battery's ran 2 helix 12s/360 and 225 Yamaha off a duracell for a few years and never had any low voltage issues.

Anything over a 50ah 12v troller is a waste when u put them all together. Im not a fan of a single 36volt, if I had a issue with one cell in it I would end up buying 3 batteries to keep fishing. With 3 12volt you can substitute one cheap battery and be on the water. 3 50ah set up for 36v is still just 50ah they dont add up.

I just ordered 2 Iconic lithium batteries 12V 50ah and will be purchasing the Duracell AMG for a cranking battery. Sure hope the lithium was worth the money they are not cheap, but I wanted the weight out of my boat as well. Guess time will tell and will report back once I get some time on them.

Interstate or Everstart.... It's a battery. Do you also need $1000 worth of batteries that will last as long as an Everstart to catch a bass? 4 Interstates on my boat. Have had great service from Everstart too... All made in the same factory by Johnson Controls. It's just all about what sticker on the side helps you sleep better at night

Usually get 5 to 6 years on them.

Youll be happy, the constant power rate is awesome, no more starting the day w the tm on 1 and ending the day on 7.

We get best bang for buck with the Deka batteries. Deka Intimidator AGM is what you're looking for. Group 31. If you're local we can get them in Nacogdoches. If not check your local dealer. For Lithium we really like Ionic as well as Lithium Battery Power. The Ionic is a bit cheaper, but LBP has a little better warranty. Ionic has the neat app on your phone.
