[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 513449, member: 21536"] Thanks Still Afloat. I have a 55# 12V Powerdrive. Max amp draw is 50. Spec'd breaker is 60 amps. I never run it at full power. On the scale of 1 to 10, I'm 99% of the time at 2.5 to 3.5. Again, I just don't understand how a LiFEPO battery with a lower AH rating can outrun one or even multiple batteries with higher AH ratings. Clearly battery tech is not in my wheelhouse. I guess my understanding why is less important than knowing if my current battery ever craps out, I might be able to consider a smaller capacity LiFEPO. This thread has been incredibly helpful understanding these newer technology batteries. [/QUOTE]
