In a lake fishing contest, there’s a lot of competition for the best spots! Any kind of advantage can make the difference between catching the biggest haul and going home empty-handed. One way to give yourself an edge is by switching to deep-discharge lithium batteries to power your trolling motor and other electronic components. There are several reasons for this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Out on the lake, your speed is determined by the ratio of engine power to boat weight. Lithium batteries weigh half as much as lead-acid and this can make a big difference to your speed off the starting line! Lead-acid is an excellent choice for starter batteries because they provide a short, large burst of power for your motor. However, pairing your starter with lightweight lithium auxiliary batteries to power your fishing gear gives you the best of both worlds. Less battery weight at the boat\u2019s stern improves your aerodynamics by reducing the bow\u2019s lift and making the boat more streamlined, helping you go faster without using more power!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
