VMAX MR96-60 AGM 12V 60AH AGM Battery Deep Cycle High Performance Battery for 24-50lb thrust Minn Kota, Cobra, Sevylor and other electric trolling motors (Group 22NF, UPGRADES ANY 55AH 22NF BATTERY)

I can't seem to run this battery down. 12 hours with a trolling motor and still has plenty of juice, great product.

I found them to be the same in size and connections, and yes they were almost twice the price of others but I anticipate not changing them again for another 5 or more years. These batteries were considerably stronger than the book calls for but I took a chance and it paid off big time. I get much more life out of the batteries, the charge lasts longer and they charge much faster. I do not regret my purchase at all.

I'm using this for a 36lb thrust trolling motor on my kayak. It doesn't last more than 3-4 hours on full speed without dying on me and that's while charging it with a small solar panel while it's running. I just bought a Lithium battery instead. Spend the extra money and get lithium. It lasts longer, has a lower discharge, and is much lighter. This battery adds a lot of weight to my kayak.

Just a note about charging this battery. The MK-105P charger paired with it by Amazon (above) is the wrong charger. When the battery arrived and I read the doc's, it said that it must have a multi-stage charger specifically for the AGM technology. I cancelled and went with the MK-110P.

When charging this battery with charger even recommended by the manufacturer, I hear lots of bubbling sound coming this battery . According to the instruction it is normal to hear some bubbling sound but in my case it doesn't sound normal. Lots of bubbling. I have other brand AGM deep cycle batteries and I hear hardly hear bubbling noise from them.Also I noticed that this battery drains faster than other brand I have which cost a lot less than this.I was going to return it but return shipping cost, almost half the cost of battery, has to be paid by me and restocking fee on top of that. So I gave up returning the battery.I don't think it is worth to pay a lot more than other brand for the same capacity.

Bought this for my boat and accidentally left my dash lights on for 3 days and it did not kill the battery, the boat fired right up. I have used my electric trolling motor for hours and it doesn't miss a beat with this battery. Well worth the money.

VMAX = Excellent, powerful, simple, durable deep cycle battery. I got two for my boat: this 60ah for starter and electronics like sonar, and then another VMAX of the same type but 100ah for my trolling motor... lasts all day. Superb products, top-rated by me and by all the battery forums.

highly recommend
