Choosing the Perfect Battery for Your Kayak Trolling Motor

This video should help you decide what the perfect battery is for the type of fishing you're going to be doing. One thing I didn't talk about was voltage. Most of the motors that people are using for their kayak are 12 volt. All of these batteries are 12 volt batteries, but if your motor needs higher voltage, you'll have to get a battery that is the correct voltage for the motor. I hope this video helps you make the right decision for what you need.

Have you thought about running everything with your 280amp? For example, trolling motor, fishfinder and etc.

[@CaseyReedFishing]

Fish finders and trolling motors should be ran off a different batteries. You could do it, and not have any issues but your taking a risk of having interference issues.

Great videos. Did you place the 280 in a box behind the seat where you used to have the other battery? If not, did you have to reconfigure the on board charging cables

[@CaseyReedFishing]

It will fit under the seat. No battery box and you have to add a breaker.

Ok gotcha! I'm torn between Bonafied pwr129 and the 136. Your setup is my ideal setup. Torn lol

I think advance AutoZone screw me but I will figure it out when I put the battery on my trolling motor and go

If camping can you charge with solar?

[@CaseyReedFishing]

I've never actually tried. It's possible, but depending on how much you're using them, you'd probably need to have a spare on charge during the day, and use another one, then swap. I have a little inverter generator that I use when I need to charge when I don't have hook ups for power.

My 50 ah Battery for the Watersnake T24 on my Hobie Compass is a bit on the smaller side to me. So i ordered a 100Ah Battery now, as a upgrade for the next saison. My fishfinder is connected to a 10 Ah battery and worked perfect for two days.

[@CaseyReedFishing]

Yeah 50 amp is small for a motor in my opinion too. It's doable but it all depends on how you use it. The 100 amp seems to be just right for 99 percent of people.

[@whocarescameraj1809]

how many hrs were you getting on the 50ah?

[@ME4TLO4F]

Holy shit bro. I just looked up how much the 135ah one costs. You should mention prices.

Quality built batteries, a long warranty incase something happens to go wrong. Lithiums are expensive, but definitely worth it especially when going on a kayak. Thanks for watching and giving your input 💪
