Description
This Dakota Lithium 12-volt, 135 Ah lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery is built for trolling-motor runtime and engine starting. It is rated at 1000 cold cranking amps, so check your engine maker’s minimum cranking spec against that number. At roughly 27.2 lb, it takes meaningful weight out of the boat compared with a lead-acid battery of similar usable capacity. The case follows a BCI 24 footprint; confirm your tray size and terminal orientation before you buy. Internal heating protects the cells while charging in freezing weather; IP65 sealing (dust-tight and protected against water jets) helps it shrug off spray. Pair it with a charger that offers a LiFePO4/lithium charge profile.
