When you totally run out a Lithium battery it will shut off the BMS and not let a charge current it. You need to actually "jump start" the battery with a power pack or another battery to wake the BMS up. Then you'll be able to charge it. So most likely that was the issue and the battery shut itself off as it should. This will mostly likely happen with any lithium battery brand. Also you can buy a charger with the "jump" feature built it. Hope this helps.
Great question! Here is a link to the seat installation video. All of the links are in the description of that video. ruclips.net/video/xedD73-GE30/видео.htmlsi=Vfa6oLFxWW42RPrc
That is a fantastic question! we are going to be filming another video in a few weeks at the lake and I will be sure to take my amp clamp and the draw underload on the water.
I thought it was strange that the battery died so quickly, a battery like that should have kept the boat running a lot more. You've ran it on a traditional battery for way longer. Maybe the battery needs to be used through a few cycles until it lives to it's potential? 🤔
I am disappointed that this company will not respond. Funny that on the battery is says “10 year life span”. It didn’t last 10 charge cycles! I am super curious about the Li Time battery that I ordered. I can’t wait to test that one out!
The battery in the video would not recharge. After several attempts to reach the manufacturer (and the publishing of this video), they have sent me a new battery! Next weekend I am heading to Northern Nevada with the new battery for another test!
New to owning a boat and looking at purchasing this battery brand. Obviously, you are using this battery in a boat, but I don't see anything on it being a marine battery. Is it safe to use on an electric outboard?
My understanding is that most of these batteries can be used to start up to 25hp outboard motors. A quick email to the manufacturer would confirm this information. Hope this helps!
Sounds like you got a bust battery to start with i use 100ah lead battery with 40 pound thrust trolling motor on seahawk2 i get 10 miles at full power on motor for short fishing trips of 5 miles from dock n back on clyde
@@MrFredsDIY your better off with 100ah or 200ah deep cycle marine battery as 50ah will only get you 5 miles most trolling motor take 400/1000 wh so it only gives you 2/3 hours out full battery ok so it means 2 batterys n solar system of 1000 watts to do 30 miles on 1 day trip stopping to let sun charge batterys as you fish ok 🚣😃👍
@@MrFredsDIY my seahawk2 set up is powermat 580 2 stroke motor short shaft n 40 pound thrust trolling motor 12v400w 1 100ah lead battery 1 10ah lead battery to run boat nav lights for sea/river/cannal uses with pop up sail thats my setup just now will soon have solar system as well ok 🚣😃👍
@@MrFredsDIY merci pour les infos Une autre question Avec une batterie comme ça ,il n' y a pas de baisse de puissance comme sur les batteries de voitures classiques ? C est la puissance max jusqu'au bout ?
Quick math... 30 lb trolling motor on a 50 amp hr Lipo4 battery should have drawn 30 amps (at max). You should have been able to get an hour and maybe a half out of it. Yup bad battery. Note: you should put a 30/40 amp fuse/breaker between the motor and the battery. Good luck with the next battery.
I have the Eco Worthy 30ah and the same trolling motor, I get about an hour. However the water I was on was mirror flat and no wind. For sure Bad battery.
Hey brother hope to see your test with the new li time battery soon. Just picked up the mini 100ah LiTime for my dads trolling motor. I think hes excited to give it a try.
The onX Off-Road app worked perfectly to track our journey around the lake! Try it out free for a week with this link! onxoffroad.app.link/Eb5wFoNU5zb
Awesome cant wait to get my hands on one of these and go fishing.

How are the seats attached to the Seahawk 4 Inflatable Boat and where can you buy them?
Great question! Here is a link to the seat installation video. All of the links are in the description of that video. ruclips.net/video/xedD73-GE30/видео.htmlsi=Vfa6oLFxWW42RPrc
Thanks for the review!
How long you being water..??
What is the draw rating in the motor? I thought those were about 50amps per hr?

Did the battery end up putting out near 12v after charge?

You forgot to tell us what motor you were using
When you put it on charge jumpstart it any battery will work 12v and under even a little 9v it will kick it back in to charging 😃

Yeah, that sounds about right. I can’t wait to repeat the test with the LiTime battery!

Bonjour, quelle puissance le moteur de bateau ?
45 foot pounds or 61 N·m
@@MrFredsDIY en lbs c est combien ?
@davidjerome4689 Aux États-Unis, les moteurs électriques sont évalués en pieds-livres de couple. Mon moteur pèse 45 pieds-livres.
@@MrFredsDIY merci pour les infos
Une autre question
Avec une batterie comme ça ,il n' y a pas de baisse de puissance comme sur les batteries de voitures classiques ?
C est la puissance max jusqu'au bout ?
Les batteries LifeP04 sont en effet censées se décharger à 12 volts jusqu'à ce que l'état de charge soit nul.

Great idea! I’ll order one now. I’ll be filming the next battery video in a few weeks in northern Nevada. Thanks for watching!
Most 30lb use on avarage even less Amps. Mostly around ~24A
(On Max Speed ofcourse)
So I would suggest even 1,5 Up to 2h.
I think the test would have been more informative if you used the aluminum boat for the test.
Yep cause they blow up boat weights nothing. But it also probably has more resistance in the water maybe than the AL boat would ?
Solar kit.

I just finished a testing video with a replacement battery the company sent Yep, that was a bad one.ruclips.net/video/UMenBkBJR6U/видео.html
Wow what a waste of the video. Watch the whole thing and then realize that you've got a battery that is defective. Thanks a lot.
These batteries truly suck….got here fast but can’t return
all boring 😊

We are filming parts of that video today! This week we are headed to Northern Nevada to film the rest of the video!
