The trolling motor batteries in my flats boat need replacing. They run my 24v trolling motor. They are currently a pair of group 24 lead/acid flooded. I'm considering replacing them with Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries.
One of the factors of my reluctance is that after years of charging my batteries with a single remote charger, I finally installed a three bank charger that I can plug in one cord and charge/maintain all three batteries in the boat almost effortlessly.
From what I've read, the pros to lithium are: much lighter, faster charging, no maintenance, longer life.
Cons are the much higher initial cost and need for a special charger.
Can anyone here spread some wisdom and tips about switching to lithium trolling motor batteries?
