I have a minnkota 36 volt 112 thrust trolling motor. Will three 12v 50 amp hr lithium batteries work ? i hardly ever run the motor on high.

I use two 50ah on my 24 volt Minn Kota Terrova. I usually on fish a half day and most of the TM use is using spot lock. Make sure you get bluetooth batteries so you can keep an eye on your battery levels.

Yes, 3 50's are enough to get you through the day and possibly two depending on conditions. I have had several boats with 3 50a, one with 3 60a, we did get 2 days out of the 60's. We sell and install Monster Marine Lithium, let me know if we can help.

Never seen 70%.
Charges in 2 hours.
Amazing !!
Highly recommended.

Folks forget that a 50AH lithium is about the same energy as a brand new lead-acid deep cycle battery.

Been using 3 50a Ionics for 3 years now on an Ultrex and now a Quest. I’m hard on the TM during a tournament and with the Ultrex I was usually down to around 60% by end of day. With the Quest I haven’t seen below 70% yet

I fished a long day yesterday with lots of trolling motor use. Windy day. I have Ionic 50ah. Started at 6am off the water at 3am. Used just slightly more than 50% of their charge. Batteries were at 49% and the big 125 was at 47%
Eat. Sleep. Fish.
