did i clear that jumbled mess up?
And reasons like this is why im in the process of setting up a trolling motor to increase range. Just recived a very sexy battery in the mail yesterday, 100ah 12.8v lifepo4 pack. Should give 80ah of useful battery combined with PWM controler and im looking at ranges of up to 20 miles on one charge if i keep throttle under 75% with no voltage sag, downside is 14 hour charge time. But plus side is it only weighs 24lbs so carrying 2 could be possible just need the cash. All said and done $750 for battery and battery management chip including hazmat shipping lol
