Well getting ready for summer and its time to add a trolling motor to my boat. I plan on buying a transom mount and want to know what people think of using a power pack( nautilus) compared to a good deep cycle bat.

Hi Seabass,

I already bought my trolling motor for next season and was looking at buying a deep cycle battery soon. I didn't even consider using a power pack instead. I am interested to see the replies on this topic.

i use a LifeLine industrial backup battery for my trolling motor....its 12V, but its almost twice the size of a normal battery....

Use a good deep cylcle battery. It will handle more recharges and can handle the stress of banging in waves and water better than other batteries.
