Product Description
This 24V lithium trolling motor battery set from Dakota Lithium was engineered in 35Ah U1 SLA case's, but with 46 amp hours (Ah) of Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) technology. These batteries have three times the power, half the weight, and lasts 5 times longer than a U1 sealed lead acid battery – providing exceptional performance & lifetime value. 46 Amp hours of capacity often provides a full day of power for small trolling motors with 70 lbs thrust or less. Lithium deep cycle battery durability, backed by an 11 Year Warranty. LiFePO4 compatible charger required. Save 10% on X2Power or NOCO 2 Bank Marine Charger/Maintainers when bundled with battery using option above.
Common Applications:
- Trolling Motors
- Marine Applications
- Link In Series For 48V
- Compatible With Onboard Charging
- Compatible With All Smaller Trolling Motors
- LiFePO4 Replacement for AGM & Marine Lead-Acid Batteries
- Not For Starting Gasoline Engines
11 Year Warranty
Best in class, 11 year manufacturer defect warranty.
Storage Capacity
46 amp hours. Dakota Lithium batteries provide consistent power for all 46Ah's. LiFePO4 batteries have a flat voltage curve, which means they have a steady power output as the battery discharges. The power output will not dramatically drop like similar sized SLA batteries. You get all the juice down to the last drop.
Drop In Replacement U1 Group Size
U1 equivalent for physical dimensions & terminal compatibility. 3X the usable power of a U1 SLA battery.
Trolling Motor Compatibility
Perfect for trolling motors with 70 lbs of thrust or less. For larger 24V trolling motors, the single 24V 60Ah or the 24V 100Ah set are recommended.
Voltage
25.6V (Dakota Lithium batteries can be used in series for up to 48V systems)
Energy
1,104 Watts (Wh)
Terminals
M6 bolt terminals with hardware included. Easy to adapt to different connection needs (Max torque 15 ft. lbs).
Size
7.6” x 5.1” x 6.8” (LxWxH) (194 x 132 x 173mm) each battery. Group U1.
Weight
10.5 lbs (4.75 Kg) each. That's 65% lighter than an SLA battery.
Lifecycles (Battery Lifespan)
Up to 80% capacity for 6,000 cycles in recommended conditions. The typical SLA has 500 cycles. Dakota Lithium batteries last so long that the price per use is a fraction of traditional batteries.
Operating Temperature
Ideal for rugged & harsh environments. Much better than SLA or other lithium’s. -20°F min, +150°F max optimal operating temps (battery performs well down to -20°F). Avoid charging below 32°F without a Battery Heater.
Discharge
50A max continuous discharge. The flat discharge voltage curve provides 3X larger usable capacity than a U1 SLA 35Ah battery.
Charge
These batteries must be charged using a LiFePO4 compatible charger. Save 10% on X2Power or NOCO 2 Bank Marine Charger/Maintainers when bundled with battery set using option above. Recommend for longest life 10A or less (.2C). Max continuous 23A (.5C). 14.4V recommended, 15V max (each battery). BMS protection from over charging will cut off at 15V per battery.
Balancing
If this battery set will be charged with a 24V charger, the batteries must be balanced before connecting in series. Please review Dakota Lithium's Balancing Instructions. This step is not required if charging batteries individually with a multi-bank charger.
Charging Time
To estimate the charging time required with different amperage chargers, see our How To Calculate Battery Charging Time article or use this Battery Charge Time Calculator.
Includes Active BMS Protection
Every Dakota Lithium battery contains a Battery Management System (BMS) that handles automatic cell balancing, low voltage cutoff, high voltage cutoff, short circuit protection and high temperature protection for increased performance and longer life.
Charger Sold Separately
This battery must be charged using a LiFePO4 compatible charger. See below.
Multiple charging options with this package to suit your various needs. 10% discount on a charger when bundled above with this battery set.
