If I had the money I would buy name brand…but my finances are limited! For those of you that have off brand lithium’s like ampere, chins, eco worthy etc. What kind of input or advice do you have to offer? I have a g-force and plan on getting 2 100’s or 3 50-60ah batteries.

Ionic's are on sale right now. 50amps are $349 and the 100 is $699. Not much more than a generic on Amazon and great customer support with 11 year warranty

I would check out Impulse Lithiums ALL IN packages, they have a special on BBC for a starting battery, charge on the run charger and a trolling battery for $2450 shipped. Converts your entire boat to Lithium

I bought two Battle Born 100ah earlier this year. I have yet to run them down in a single day using my Ultrexx. I use it all day long on the Tennessee River where there is always a current.

Main issue I see with the cheaper batteries is no low temp cutoff. My boat stays in a lift , so I would have to uplug the charger in below freezing weather.
Letting the charger run when temps are subfreezing temps damages the battery ( from what I read ).

I just sprung for the ionics, 3 50ah from drewcraft for 1,047.00 shipped.
the way things are with the supply chain I jumped before I was really ready to but didn't want to risk price going up.
