pontoon with trolling motor
#3
Maybe for an hour total use from BOTH batteries drained close to empty, depending on conditions. Freezing temperatures will reduce both expected speed and run time. Also, previously used deep cycle battery performance decreases with age or after about 200 cycles. Deep discharges and improper/non immediate recharges after each use are battery enemies.

Hope this helps.

[quote jiml100]i have a 9 foot trout unlimites pontoon and i go out to the lakes and the bay. i put a 30 thrust endura on it this week. i have 2 12 volt 12 amp agm batteries out of my sons old scooter and was wondering if that would run my motor for an hour or so, i just use it to go out then to get back in, most of the time im rowing or finning. help dont know much about dc volts. the trolling motor draws around 12 to 14 amps on srd speed, which is all i need.any the batteries are so small and light it would be cool if it would work.[/quote]
