How Long Should Trolling Batteries Last? - 04/21/13 01:26 AM
24 Volt MotorGuide, 75lb thrust, and I use it two to three times a week on average and plug it into the charger after every trip. Charger is a NOCO Genius.
Today I was fishing a tournament and it got really weak and almost died after about 5 1/2 hours...I had to quit fishing the tourney. It has 5 settings and on average I was only running it on 2 and sometimes 3. But, it was a cypress tree lake so I had my foot on the pedal more than normal pitching tree-to-tree.
Batteries are almost 2 years old. Should they be bad already?
