What about 12 v spot lock motors?

Where did you put another battery. I barely have room for the 2 in there

You can get creative with agm batteries. They don’t have to lay flat like flooded cells.

I have the 55BT Terrova on a 17.5' Tracker with 2 batteries wired in parallel. I have stayed spotlocked all day, trolled between docks, or chased catfish jugs all night. The batteries never shown less than half full on the meter on the trolling motor

Sorry to hijack this thread, but has anyone wired two batteries in parallel in order to increase time?

Yes and it works great.

12. Out on 17 wareagle and never had a problem. But saying that if I was to do it over like previously said I’d go for 24 with such a little price difference.

batteries should be the same size and age to work best.

I thought that the Ultrex was either 24 or 36 volt not 12 volt

Sorry. Had a brain freeze.

Mine is a 04' PT175 and there is room, not much but enough. I had to mount the 3 bank charger back by the transom, that took some ninja like skills but it worked out well.

I have a 2000 pt175 and added a third battery also. I had to modify a battery tray to fit between the two existing battery trays. The furthest in battery can be a pain to get in and out and as said before the three bank charger can take some ninja skills to mount. Adding another battery can be done it just takes some planning and stretches.

My Tracker 175TF has the 24v Terrova! But yes, batteries are tight in my compartment
