I have the Iconic 36v 50 AH battery, their dual 36v /12v charger and their 36v heavy duty aluminum battery tray which totaled around $2000.
So far so good - The single battery 36v battery is a very clean uncluttered installation - compared to (3) lead acid battery saves 100 lb of (2) battery weight and space. A game changer for a 20 foot Seacraft. My single 36v battery install was the first for my marine mechanic (who is truly a master craftsman) - he was not overly enthusiastic when I told him I was going with a new fangled single "lightweight 45lb" 36v battery but after the "simple" install he was impressed and thinks that is the way to go now.
On my 20 foot boat I roughly estimate I will get around 20 hours + - of constant 36v TM use in 5 knot current. Most times I have used 10 - 20 % battery for up to 6 hour fishing trip but not operating the TM all the time - rough guideline. The smart blue tooth app to easily monitor battery usage is nice
2 thumbs up right now
