[QUOTE="RobDooley, post: 5298208, member: 20045"] Same for Mercury. I emailed Mercury and this was part of their response: "Lithium Batteries contain a Battery Management System (BMS) that protects the battery against thermal and over/under charging events. This could cause the BMS to remove battery voltage to the engine while underway, posing a safety hazard while causing possible damage to the engine's electrical system. We do NOT recommend using lithium batteries with ANY Mercury Outboard due to these circumstances". I may get them for my trolling motor and one for graphs and all other accessories. Keeping an AGM for cranking motor. Hopefully, they will continue to improve the technology. [/QUOTE]
