Bruh why are people so concerned about what you do with your battery. And yes there are better option but your correct are they gonna buy u one lol. Buddy keep on fishing and thanks for taking the time to share some info. LETS GO CATFISHING !!
I re did the test but forgot memory card was full so didn't get footage plan on doing it again but the results was 3 hrs exactly at full power the whole time at 3 hrs point speed slowed down and 5 minutes later completely dead
@michiganmikeupnorth I made it the handle is pvc pipe and the bar connecting the handle to the shaft my brother got from his job at whirlpool, I have a video on how I did it
I redid the test but had camera problems and didn't get footage but it lasted exactly 3 hours before completely died and roughly 6 miles at full power constantly, lawn mower battery won't last long and isn't designed to be recharged over and over like a marine deep cycle battery hope that helps thanks for watching 👍👊🎣🎣
Thanks for watching it's a speedometer app on Android app store, I redone the test and the battery lasted three hours at full throttle untill completely drained but had technical difficulties and lost all footage average speed was 3.8 mph
It would be great to see you test a lithium battery from seaquestbattery that costs $475 weighs 13 lbs vs the $80 45 lb walmart battery. I would bet you a 7 lb bass that you not only would have a higher top speed but would last 5 times longer. Plus at my age, I cannot lift a 45 lb battery no more.
I lost connection on my phone and ran out of time I'm going to redo the test when I get a chance, lead acid battery loses amps halve way through the cycle at a fast rate I started losing speed just before I lost signal I got 1.5hr at max power I estimate I had 30 to 45 minutes before it was dead but we will see next time if I was right
Well I lost satellite signal and ran out of time that day and haven't had the chance to get it back on the water but as soon as I can I plan on running it until I can't and update this video
@krazy kat fishing okay I have that same battery and was looking for it I used a Duracell 35ah battery that weighs 1/3 and I was surprised how it ran my trolling motor for so long
@Michael Pace I ran out of time and lost satellites to my phone plan on redoing the test once weather cooperate think I should get 5 to 6 hrs of constant use
Sir, a 100ah can usually run a 30lbs for hours. you only manage 1.5h. Is your battery have a defect? the math is pretty simple. Usually a 30lbs motor draws around 3A, 100ah/3a around 33 hours. I measure my motor outside of the water in my shed. my test might be wrong because level one of the motor draws only 2.6 amp while full power(level 5) drawed 2.9 amp. One day I will measure it in the water.
My motor draws 30ah at full speed I redid the test but lost the footage but it ran 3 hours exactly at full throttle non stop. Out of water tests are inaccurate there's no resistance on the propeller from the water and the weight it's pushing witch will cause motor to pull more power
@@Legallyblindoutdoors that's what I thought too since level 1 and 5 didn't have any difference. It didn't make sense. Ok next time I'll measure in the water just for the fun of it. Happy fishing and be safe from Canada.
That's cool go check out my new video on the tcbworth lithium battery I compare the two I would recommend a lithium 100ah if you can afford it @lungchan1729
SLA (sealed lead-acid) or AGM (absorbed glass mat) batteries are no longer the best option for running a trolling motor. They weigh twice as much and deliver half the power of a lithium iron-phosphate (LFP) battery. (Yes, they are 4 times as effective.) On top of that, an LFP battery delivers a constant voltage throughout almost the entire discharge cycle, so you're not having to bump up the setting on your trolling motor to get the same speed, or just live with less and less speed on the highest setting. Given that good LFP trolling motor batteries only cost about twice as much as a lead-acid option, but last 5 times as long, weigh half as much, and deliver twice as much usable power, they are an absolute no-brainer...especially for folks in a kayak, where weight matters. You could get a 50AH LFP battery, which would weigh 1/4 as much as that lead-acid battery, and it would give you the same run-time.
Yes I'm well aware of this, and your more than welcome to buy one for me wouldn't hurt my feelings at all, I'm on a fixed income took 3 months to afford this $80 battery
@@Legallyblindoutdoors - If your discretionary income is less than $30/mo, should you even be spending money on things like a kayak, trolling motor or battery? You might want to start saving up to replace that lead-acid battery, since they only last 2 or 3 years, unless you take perfect care of them.
Let's review the details. His discretionary income may be less than $30/month. Since it is HIS income, and discretionary means he can use it at his own discretion, and he was able to save enough to purchase these items at HIS discretion, what is the issue, and where do you get the audacity to question it?

he has a deep cycle you can run it down to nothing its not going to hurt it lol if it was a start battery than yes you are right it will damage the battery.. 100ah lithium is $300 and up... his battery was $79
One thing for sure , the addition of a trolling motor and good battery to your kayak is a game changer for accessing your fishing spots ! 👍
Yes sir 💯💯

I'm not worried about their opinions, I find them humorous, thanks for watching and the comment, go fishing make memories
I have a 55lb 100ah lifepo4 on a 10ft yak. I went 12m with it once. Im a little spooked to go any further. Six miles out, six miles back.
I re did the test but forgot memory card was full so didn't get footage plan on doing it again but the results was 3 hrs exactly at full power the whole time at 3 hrs point speed slowed down and 5 minutes later completely dead
I had to re-watch this video cause I couldn't quit laughing after you said what you were fishing with lol...
Lol it would have been cool if I caught something on it 😅
Hey man, do you have a link to that trolling motor steering attachment? Or did you make it yourself?
Made it myself
Your alright man 👍
Thanks 👍👊
How many beers did you have today
None
How much total run time did you get out of the battery?
3 hrs nonstop
Where and how did you setup your steering arm, ed
I have a video explaining that I believe it's before this one
Where can I get a tiller linkage and handle like that?
@michiganmikeupnorth I made it the handle is pvc pipe and the bar connecting the handle to the shaft my brother got from his job at whirlpool, I have a video on how I did it
@@Legallyblindoutdoors I'll look for it....thanks. It's a great setup. I want to run something similar on my rowboat.
Like number one 👍
Thanks 👍🎣🎣🛶
Yo boss did the battery died after 1.5 hours and reached about 3 miles? I’m considering a lawnmower battery and wanted to try it out. Thanks boss

Looks like you have figured most of it out. What is the program you are using on your phone? For speed, distance etc. ?

I would love to have one 👍are you going to buy it for me?
buy ektríc bíàt
Sounds like you should get you one bud and worry about you😂
What phone app are you using?
It just says speedometer with the number 69 for the thumbnail
Nice 👏🏻👏🏻🇺🇸🇧🇷
Thank you 😎👍🎣🎣

How much weight in your yak?.....Also, Part 2 coming soon to share battery results?
Everything around 320 including kayak
Thanks!
That video did not tell much.what was the end results on the run time or how long did the battery last?

So around 3 hours?
@@rm2567 yes untill you start losing amperage
How long did it last before you ran really low on power?
Well I lost satellite signal and ran out of time that day and haven't had the chance to get it back on the water but as soon as I can I plan on running it until I can't and update this video
Please do 😊
Where do you find the amp hours?
There's a sticker on top of battery that has it on it, the trolling motor had the Amp draw on the front of the box
