trolling battery for inflatable boat?
I have an inflatable boat, Seahawk II, with a 30lb thrust Minn Kota and am trying to select the best option that makes good economic sense. I bought the boat setup to be portable and cheap and now it is down to the battery, It looks like about 100+ amp/hrs would be good to me.
It seems the wet cell (lead acids) are the cheapest, I figure if I put it in a battery case it will run me about $145 and should be safe if I am careful.
The AGM battery seems to offer benefits of fully enclosed (no acid spills on an inflatable sounds good) and if I bring it towards a zero charge it can handle the abuse better than wet cell. However the battery alone seems to be over $200.
What details am I missing? Can someone with marine battery knowledge give me advice for this situation?
Use a wet cell no real problems. You MUST get a deep discharge batt or it will be ruined after a few uses, or get a good guaranteed, say its in your car(only) and exchange it often.
