I am currently working on a project about Lithium Marine Batteries. Please feel free to share your opinions on these questions as well as add anything else you might think is beneficial in deciding to purchase Lithium batteries for your boat or concerns you may have. Thank you for helping out and contributing.

1) Do you currently run Lithium Batteries in your boat? Brand? Cranking and/or trolling? Why did you select that brand?

2) What questions, concerns or issues do you have about purchasing Lithium batteries in the future? What brand are you looking at and why?

3) Honestly, how well do you understand battery science and other mechanical/chemical things as it relates to boats?

4) Are bells and whistles such as bluetooth monitoring, fancy gauges, depth finder interfacing etc.important to you and does it validate an increased price?

5) Is brand recognition important or do you believe most batteries are the same quality regardless of brand, packaging or advertising

6) Do you understand how battery warranties truly work?

I saw you asked the same question on another thread, mind says what the project is besides opinions?

1) Do you currently run Lithium Batteries in your boat? Brand? Cranking and/or trolling? Why did you select that brand?
Ionic 125a cranking and 3 50a tm
2) What questions, concerns or issues do you have about purchasing Lithium batteries in the future? What brand are you looking at and why?
These should be good for a long time to come, moslt likely new technology will be out before they need replacing
3) Honestly, how well do you understand battery science and other mechanical/chemical things as it relates to boats?
Enough to be dangerous, 30 years experience in maintenance field
4) Are bells and whistles such as bluetooth monitoring, fancy gauges, depth finder interfacing etc.important to you and does it validate an increased price?
Bluetooth is nice, the rest is irrelevant to me
5) Is brand recognition important or do you believe most batteries are the same quality regardless of brand, packaging or advertising
I'm sure some are the same with different labels, customer support is what I chose my decision on
6) Do you understand how battery warranties truly work?
Yes, and not all are the same.

1) Do you currently run Lithium Batteries in your boat? Brand? Cranking and/or trolling? Why did you select that brand?

***I recommend for now to stay Led Acid or AGM batteries for the cranking motor. Some motor manufacturers even state in the owners manual to stay away from Lithium for the big motor.

2) What questions, concerns or issues do you have about purchasing Lithium batteries in the future? What brand are you looking at and why?
Make certain that the Lithium batteries you chose have temp sensor/s. The EG4 12v 100 Ah has 4 temp sensors on board as well as a built-in fire suppressor.

3) Honestly, how well do you understand battery science and other mechanical/chemical things as it relates to boats?
Read the add in the link above to find some of these answers

4) Are bells and whistles such as bluetooth monitoring, fancy gauges, depth finder interfacing etc.important to you and does it validate an increased price?
The EG4 12v 100 Ah will be your highest rating at the best price points out there and will have all of the Bells & Whistles

5) Is brand recognition important or do you believe most batteries are the same quality regardless of brand, packaging or advertising

6) Do you understand how battery warranties truly work?
I know 100% that if you ever have an issue with the EG4 batteries you will be very satisfied as to how well you will be taken care of. Most importantly, you will be very impressed with how the Batteries perform without issues.
