LiPo for Fish Finder?

Most of that info is probably mostly outdated. They've been using LiPo batteries in Radio Control electric flying as well as Offroad and onroad Racing for Years now and they are a lot more safe now than they ever have been.

Yeah it mentions radio controlled fliers in the wiki and how carefully those guys are with their connections. Also showed an expanded iPhone battery. I'm not speaking on personal experience, just saying look closely into. Measure risk vs. reward. Are the lead acid batteries really that heavy? I would stick with them just because they are maintenence free. Idk, I just feel I would always worry about it ifi had a lipo

I'm not trying to be argumentative or anything. I'm clueless. Just from what I've read, I'd look closely at the risk and decide if it's safe or not

I wouldn't mess with anything other than lead acid. They have the safest most reliable track record of all the batteries. I hate when engineers spec nicad on the projects I bid ( I sell commercial generators). Nicad are ten times the price and crap out easily. Just my opinion.
