Does the PSP-2000 battery work with the PSP-1000?

Will this battery work with this motor and charger. If not please give me a link to a battery that would work.?

  • Answer:

    Nope, you'll need what is called a Deep cycle battery, used for either marine or RV applications, as there designed for charge discharge use, a normal battery will be toast after a few uses, heres the best bang for your buck, made by Johnson Controls sold by Autozone. http://www.autozone.com/autozone/accessories/Duralast-685-CA-marine-deep-cycle-battery?itemIdentifier=298374

A lantern battery will not power a trolling motor. It is not rechargeable. You need a marine cycle battery such as: http://www.bing.com/shopping/advanced-angler-agm-batteries/p/F2DE1E50835B5C345003?q=marine+battery&lpq=marine%20battery&FORM=HURE

seriously? deep cycle. and two of them if you really expect to use more then 4 hours at full power often enough to justify needing a recharge before you get home. personally i just buy mine at walmart, deep cycle marine battery printed clearly on the battery. even with my limited use and frequent charging, i can usually count on the walmart batteries to fail early enough to be replaced for free under warranty. and i use a relatively cheap charger set on 10 amps and left overnight to charge the batteries when i get home. you just cant really carry enough power to properly recharge a battery without having something to plug the charger into, and portable chargers are more expensive.
