I reckon I'll find out soon enough, currently installing a new 24 volt 80 lb thrust Terrova with I-Pilot Link so I can troll cranks like Doug Wynn on KY Lake.

I would think boat size/weight would make the biggest difference on battery usage. A heavy 20 ft fiberglass boat is going to have MUCH different results than a lightweight aluminum 17 ft boat.

I just today finished installing 2 Trojan 105s for a 12 volt system.
I hope its worth the extra money.
Got a new smart charger too.
Will see how long it lasts.
I do a lot of longlining and troll plugs on occasion.
