Anybody using Miller Tech 12V 100AH Sport Series Lithium Bluetooth Battery (12100G24)? Are they any good for trolling motor? Would put two together for 24v. Haven't really found many reviews on these.
Thanks, OnePecan

I've not used that battery specifically, but I wouldn't have any concerns with any of the MillerTech products. They're quite top-notch and their service is as well.
I am running their 36v Lithium battery.

I've been using two of those for my Force trolling motor for about a year now. Love them!! Have never dropped below 83 percent after a long day.

About two years ago, I bought a 100 AH, 12 V lithium battery for my live scope set up, and it has been really good. I ordered it from a company called select solar in Sulphur Springs. It was $329. However, they want to charge you a $100 shipping fee as they claim it is hazardous material which I think is a bogus charge. The thing I like about it most is how it stays fully charged for days and doesn’t budge off of 13.1 V The thing I do not like about it is how bulky and heavy it is as my live scope set up is portable, and I take it from my boat here in Texas to my boat in southern Illinois. There are other lithium options. I have seen online at the same price point to where you do not have to pay the $100 shipping fee.

100 AH just to run a Livescope? Pretty sure you can get by with a much smaller battery....

You’re right 100ah is large for a Livescope. At the time, I did not know about all of the other options and I took the recommendation to build my portable. Live scope rig off of this forum, meaning I did not want to buy a piece of junk battery and appreciated the referral. $329 seem to be a good deal for me, I may definitely be able to use it to Run other things as well. One thing for sure is I hardly ever have to charge it when I am using it away from home.
