[QUOTE="TNCharlie, post: 5371973, member: 2047"] Somewhere there is thread where I said that I would report on my lithium battery performance. I gave it pretty good test yesterday. I am VERY happy with the results. The pic shows my battery connected to the charger. I ran it almost solid for close to 4 hours driving a 40-lb thrust Minn Kota trolling motor pushing a 14-foot square stern canoe with 2 adults at mostly slow to medium speeds with occasional wide open runs. When I got home I connected it to the charger. In just a couple of minutes it marched right through the 3 red lights on the charging graph and lit up the green. (I don't think the green shows in the pic.) I did leave it on for a short while just in case it could use a little top-off, but I really don't think it needed to be recharged at all. Granted this was a light load compared to running the MInn Kota i-Pilot on my boat, but I've had similar results there. I have not come close to actually running the battery down. Throw in the advantage of being so very light compared to a conventional battery, and, yeah, I'm a happy camper. :) [ATTACH type="full"]140350[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
