Battery care and safety
- Ingress protection
- IP67
- Charge current the heater needs to run
- The heater needs at least 15 A of charge current
- Where to install it
- In a waterproof box or raised above the bilge
“This product supports IP67 protection. To avoid potential issues, it is recommended to install the battery in a waterproof battery container and/or position it at a higher level.This will prevent the battery from being partially or wholly submerged in the water accumulated at the bottom of the boat.”

None of these is a statement that the product is safe or unrecalled — only that our searches found nothing. Each regulator’s own search is linked above.
Devices documented to run on this
The figures below line up. Neither manufacturer states that this pack runs this device — that is our reading of what each of them published separately, not a claim by either of them or a test by us. Even where every stated figure agrees, these can still decide it:
- A motor’s published draw is usually a peak, not the load it holds — the two numbers are not the same kind of quantity
- A maker’s amp-hour minimum and their reserve-capacity minimum can give different answers about the same battery
- Conditions attached to the chemistry, such as a speed limit for running on lithium
- Whether the pack may be wired in series at all, where the device needs 24 or 36 volts
- The charger, which both makers put conditions on and neither supplies
- Case size, hold-down and terminal type — fitting the space is not being secured in it
Worth confirming with the manufacturer or a dealer before buying.
- Minn Kota Terrova 55 lb (54" shaft, wireless remote)Figures compared
One of these, on its own, at 12 V.
Only at 12 volts, and on published figures — neither maker has named the other and nobody has tested this pairing — check yours before buying.
The motor's maker asks for at least a 105 amp-hour rating. This pack is rated 165 Ah and 150 A continuous. Minn Kota attach a condition to the chemistry that no comparison of figures can settle: "speeds higher than 85% for a prolonged period could cause permanent damage to the motor".
Compatible platforms
The motors this pack is documented to run are listed above. No boat, rig or other platform in this catalogue is listed as carrying it — that is a separate question from what it will power, and nothing is listed until a source answers it.
