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:

The device’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 device's manufacturer or a dealer before buying.

Three of these, identical to each other, wired in series for 36 V.

Only at 36 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 100 Ah minimum for a lead-acid or AGM battery, and 50 Ah to 100 Ah where the battery is lithium, and the battery must be able to supply 60 A of continuous current. This pack is rated 100 Ah and 100 A continuous. The pack's maker permits the series wiring this needs: "In Series, and In Parallel (up to 4) — Renogy state series support without naming a limit".

Two of these, identical to each other, wired in series for 24 V.
Only at 24 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 100 Ah minimum for a lead-acid or AGM battery, and 50 Ah to 100 Ah where the battery is lithium, and a 40 A continuous draw, which the circuit breaker is specified against. This pack is rated 100 Ah and 100 A continuous. The pack's maker permits the series wiring this needs: "In Series, and In Parallel (up to 4) — Renogy state series support without naming a limit".

Renogy rate this pack at 100 A continuous — their datasheet reads "100A" — and Progressive Dynamics publish a max current at max load of 100 A for the PD1610. The two figures are EQUAL, so a pack running this inverter at its full 1000 W would be at its maker's stated limit with nothing spare. That is a different statement from a comfortable fit, and neither company has made either. Compared on continuous figures only: nothing here is about surge.

Devices whose figures this pack does not meet

Neither maker names the other. These devices publish a draw this pack’s own maker does not rate it to deliver continuously. That is a comparison of two documents and not a manufacturer’s refusal — check both against your own equipment before deciding anything.

Minn Kota ask for “at least a 105 amp-hour rating”, in a paragraph about lead-acid: “The motor will operate with any lead acid, deep cycle marine 12-volt battery/batteries. For best results, use a deep cycle, marine battery with at least a 105 amp-hour rating.” This pack is AGM, so that is the figure that applies to it directly. This pack is rated 100 Ah and 100 A continuous. The pack's maker permits the series wiring this needs: "In Series, and In Parallel (up to 4) — Renogy state series support without naming a limit".

Renogy rate this pack at 100 A continuous — their datasheet reads "100A" — and the PD1620 draws up to 200 A at full load by Progressive Dynamics' own figure. The pack is not rated to deliver that continuously, short by 100 A.

Renogy rate this pack at 100 A continuous — their datasheet reads "100A" — and the PD1618 draws up to 180 A at full load by Progressive Dynamics' own figure. The pack is not rated to deliver that continuously, short by 80 A.

Figures compared — they do not meet

Neither maker names the other. What these chargers publish and what this pack publishes do not meet, and each row below says how. That is our comparison of two documents and not a manufacturer’s refusal — check both against your own equipment before deciding anything.

WF-8900 Series Power ConverterFigures compared — they do not meetView charger: WF-8900 Series Power Converter →
Renogy state this pack's charge voltage as 14.4 V to 14.8 V in cycle use — their datasheet reads "Cycle Use Voltage 14.4V to 14.8V". WFCO's own manual gives this converter a target output of 13.6 VDC in normal use, rising to 14.4 VDC only in Bulk Mode, which it leaves "until the current draw drops to approximately five Amps, or until the timer reaches four hours (whichever happens first)". So the converter's normal output is below what this pack is specified to charge at, and 14.4 V to 14.8 V in cycle use is reached only during that Bulk phase. Neither company names the other, and neither has said anything about this pairing.

Do not charge with

The manufacturer states these chargers must not be used with this battery:

PD4500LI Series Power Control CenterStated incompatibleView charger: PD4500LI Series Power Control Center →
Progressive Dynamics state it outright about this converter: "The 4500LI series converter/chargers are designed to recharge lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries only. DO NOT USE TO RECHARGE LEAD/ACID BATTERIES!" This pack is AGM, which is a lead-acid chemistry, so their sentence covers it. They say nothing about packs of other chemistries and nothing here extends it past what it covers.
