[QUOTE="CRS, post: 489963, member: 21726"] I run lithium's for my motors and electronics, the 12 volt batteries running the fish finder and other steering and lifting shows input to the Solex10 as being 13.1 volts. Dakota lithium guarantees their batteries for 11 years and they include a charger made for their LiFePo4 batteries. At half the weight of lead acid types and twice the life, worth the extra cost. Keep in mind AGM's and lead acid should never be discharged past 50% capacity, it damages the battery shortening the life. LiFePO4's depending on whom you talk to can run to %80 0r %90 discharge with no damage and the voltage remains a constant 13.1. When I switched everything improved. [/QUOTE]
