Thread: Testing lithium battery and ripping lips

Nimrod, if that battery dropped 2 volts in 9.5 hours, how long to you think it will operate the scope before it dies? I have been told that when a lithium goes dead, there's no warning, it's just dead

It is rated at 14.8 but will charge to 16.8. It shuts off at 12 volts they say . I figure I had several more hours of use . That is good running a 12'' unit and black box . The battery weighs less than 5 pounds . The 32 amp hour runs higher volts and that is trouble with 12 volt lead acid they go low on voltage . The charger comes with the 32 ah from Amped . You can't use regular charger .

Nimrod in your opinion did the higher voltage help with image quality?

Hard to tell , we have had so much clutter because of floods this year it changes as I move around the lake . Some say yes and other say no when asked if higher voltage helps picture .

Nimrod at Amped, is there someone you suggest talking to?
Salesperson you’ve been using?

No I just read about and ordered from their website

I think Matt is the main guy; very good at answering emails in a timely manner.

Yes I think Matthew Lardinois is who was emailing me.

Nice cooler full, thanks for sharing.

Nimrod, I bought the Echomap UHD 73sv on sale at Basspro Wednesday I believe and am going to get the livescope transducer too. I have been hearing that it needs to be connected to a dedicated battery power source. After reading a few of these post I have been researching how to install it on my Ranger 188C. I don't know exactly how to run a power cable or the bestway to get it to the front of the boat nor do I know the best battery to purchase. Can you please give me your opinion and maybe even a picture of your setup. Thanks
