Often times running my TM at 75% power. There's no better ease of mind to me then knowing I can go multiple days without charging, if needed/wanted. [USER=1268]@riverview[/USER] When I think about the cost, it just doesn't really matter to me. I spent damn near $200 on a group 31 LA that would run my TM about 5-7 hours. The LiTime battery was nearly $350 for my 12V 165AH LiTime battery last fall. [USER=337]@guywhofishes[/USER] I upgraded to the 165AH dual purpose battery this spring and have had zero issues with charging thru the alternator. I run two graphs and everything in the boat with it. I haven't seen the battery dip below 99% yet and I fish potholes with smaller runs. I haven't even turned the NOCO battery 2 on to charge it yet because it's always full. It's been so good that I've decided my next boat project will be to runing wiring to the bow and power my Livescope with it as well, rather than the dedicated Amped 52AH battery I use for ice fishing.Can't say enough good things about LiTime. Very impressed with them for the price. The only thing I'd change is not running the battery below 20% and not charging it full until the night prior to use.</blockquote>
