1 more question about lithium. Lets say 1 of my lithium fails can I substitute a lead acid in its place on a 36v systems? Only reason I ask is because not many store fronts handle lithium and if I am on a trip somewhere and the lithium fails I don't want to be stuck not being able to use my boat.

If one of your 12v lithium's goes down, you can substitute it with a lead acid battery. Its not the ideal situation but it will get you by.

I have read a lot about lithium and everyone seems to really like them. I have 1 of my 12v lead acids going bad and considering moving over to lithium.
Weight and space is not an issue for my boat. The weight of lithium would be nice when having to install them though vs the lead acid.
Right now I have 3 group 27 deep cycle Interstate batteries for my 36v trolling motor.
My Minnkota MK330D battery charger is not rated to charge lithium so I would have to change that also. What brand charger is everybody using on their lithiums?
It seems like everyone likes the Ionic Batteries but what’s everyone’s opinions?
Also do I need to change out the battery trays from my current group 27 size or just put the lithiums in the same trays and strap them down tight?
I really don’t want to spend a ton of money to upgrade everything but I am tired of buying new leaf acids every 3-4 years. And the ionic have an 11 years warranty Curious if you ever pulled the trigger on the batteries? I’m in the exact same boat as to the batteries. Would love to hear your results. Thanks.
