Minn Kota Terrova 112 lb (60" shaft, CHIRP sonar, wireless remote)

minnkota.johnsonoutdoors.com/us/shop/freshwater-trolling-motors/terrova/1358310

The Minn Kota Terrova 112 lb (60" shaft, CHIRP sonar, wireless remote) is a trolling motor with 112 lb of thrust, a 36 V system, three 12 V batteries, a 60 in shaft, a peak draw of 52 A, a stated minimum of 105 Ah and a recommended 125–150Ah.

Last updated: 11 September 2026

What we found

3 battery models are documented as running it: LiTime 12V 100Ah TM, LiTime 36V 50Ah TM, LiTime 12V 50Ah TM, from the manufacturer's own documentation, 2 of them needing more than one pack in series.
9 battery models are matched as running it across 5 brands, by setting each maker's published figures against the other — neither names the pairing, 8 of them needing more than one pack in series.
Minn Kota recommend lithium.
9 batteries are explicitly documented as NOT suitable for it.
Published as 36 volts · 52 A at most, and only in bursts · 112 lb of thrust.
15 specifications are published for it, each with the source it was read from, 2 of them corroborated by a second source.

Assembled from the evidence on this page. Every figure and count below is shown with the source it was read from.

At a glance

System voltage 36 VPeak draw 52 A112 lb thrust

That is a peak, not a continuous rating. The maker publishes no continuous draw for this — see below for what they say about it — so a pack sized on the figure above is sized for the worst moment rather than for the load it will hold.

What this device draws

Continuous draw: Not published — they give a peak and rule out using it so
Max amp draw: 52 A at most, and only in bursts
Max thrust: 112 lb of thrust
System voltage: 36 volts

What battery it needs

How many batteries: Three 12 V batteries, wired in series for 36 V
Circuit breaker it requires: 60 Amp @ 36 VDC, and one must be fitted
Run time the maker estimates: 1.5–2.5 hours on the recommended pack
Whether it can run on lithium: Yes, but not above 85% speed for long — see the manual
Amp-hours the maker names for lead acid: 105 Ah, for lead acid and “for best results” — not a floor
Amp-hours the maker recommends: 125–150Ah recommended for a 112 lb motor
Battery type the maker recommends: Minn Kota recommend lithium
Cable gauge, by run length: 8 AWG for the supplied leads, 4 AWG at 25 ft

Some rows below are marked FIGURES COMPARED. On those the figures line up and neither manufacturer states that the pack runs the 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.

Epoch Batteries DP12300H 12V 300Ah Pro SeriesFigures compared
Three of these, Three 12-volt batteries wired in series.
Only on a comparison of two published figures — Epoch's 300 amp-hours against the 105 that Minn Kota's manual asks for, and with three of these wired in series as their manual requires
Minn Kota's manual for this motor asks for at least a 105 amp-hour rating. Epoch rate this pack at 300 amp-hours each, which clears that and their website guide's 110 as well. Epoch also publish a recommended continuous discharge of 150 A against a 300 A maximum, and the motor's 52 A peak draw is well inside the recommendation. What the capacities do not settle is what each maker says this kind of battery is for. Epoch sell it as a "Dual-purpose cranking and deep-cycle LiFePO4 battery" and print 1,000 A at five seconds beside the 300 Ah. Minn Kota say a cranking battery "is not suitable for use with an electric trolling motor because they focus on quick, strong burst of power to start your outboard engine vs long-lasting power for trolling motor use". Their objection is to a battery built only for cranking and Epoch's claim is that this one is built for both — but Minn Kota have not said a dual-purpose pack answers it, and Epoch have not addressed Minn Kota. Both sentences are here because neither company has resolved the other. Minn Kota attach a condition to lithium that no comparison of capacities can settle either: this motor is "specifically designed to run on traditional lead-acid batteries", and running it above 85% "for a prolonged period could cause permanent damage to the motor". This motor takes three 12-volt batteries wired in series; Epoch permit up to four of these in series, so three is inside their limit. Minn Kota forbid mixing types in such a string: "Do not connect a Lead-Acid and Lithium in a series to create a 24-volt system". Neither company has named the other and nobody has tested the pairing.

Lithium Pros publish a reserve-minute figure for this pack and it names Minn Kota, which is not a statement that the two go together: their footnote assumes a 50% throttle setting on a Minn Kota motor and a 50% duty cycle, so it is a runtime estimate for one motor at one throttle position. It is not the BCI reserve capacity — minutes at a fixed 25 amps — which is the measure Minn Kota's own requirement refers to, so the two numbers should not be set against each other. Minn Kota attach a condition to the chemistry that no comparison of capacities can settle: this motor is "specifically designed to run on traditional lead-acid batteries", and "running a Minn Kota trolling motor at speeds higher than 85% for a prolonged period could cause permanent damage to the motor". On charging they are the other way about — motors and Precision chargers made in 2021 or later carry a lithium profile, and earlier Precision chargers can charge lithium on the AGM setting. Minn Kota's manual for this motor is explicit that three 12-volt batteries wired in series are required, and their amp-hour figure is asked of the battery rather than of the string. They also forbid mixing types in such a string: "Do not connect a Lead-Acid and Lithium in a series to create a 24-volt system", which rules out part-upgrading an existing lead-acid set. Their battery-guidance table recommends lithium at 125 to 150 amp-hours for a 112 lb motor. Neither company has named the other and nobody has tested the pairing.

The 20-hour rate is the conventional marine rating and the one compared. Minn Kota's website battery guide asks for 110 amp-hours rather than the manual's 105, and they have not reconciled the two; at 130 this battery clears both. Trojan give reserve minutes at two currents for this battery — 225 minutes at 25 amps and 57 at 75 — and the 52 amps Minn Kota state as this motor's maximum draw falls between them. Trojan publish no figure at that current, so how long it would last there is not something either company states. Minn Kota's manual for this motor is explicit that three 12-volt batteries wired in series are required. Their amp-hour figure is asked of the battery rather than of the string, so it is compared against a single one. Their battery-guidance table recommends lithium at 125 to 150 amp-hours for a 112 lb motor, which is a different chemistry from this one — the manual and the table are both Minn Kota's and they do not agree. Neither company has named the other and nobody has tested the pairing.

Trojan publish no amp-hour capacity for the 31XCS at all — its panel reads "Capacity Amp-Hours N/A" where every other battery in the line prints four figures. Minn Kota cover exactly that case: where no amp-hour rating is available they ask for a deep cycle battery with at least 180 minutes of reserve capacity. Trojan give 185 minutes at 25 amps, clearing it by 5 minutes. Minn Kota state this motor draws up to 52 amps, and Trojan publish nothing at a current that high, so the reserve figure answers their requirement without describing what the battery does under this motor's load.

Lithium Pros S2460
on what each maker publishes about the other's kind of product — Lithium Pros sell this one for outboards and rate it in cranking amps, and Minn Kota rule cranking batteries out for trolling motors
Lithium Pros sell the S2460 as "the world's first sodium-ion battery made for outboards" and rate it at 800 MCA Eq — marine cranking amps. Minn Kota rule that out directly: a cranking battery "is not suitable for use with an electric trolling motor because they focus on quick, strong burst of power to start your outboard engine vs long-lasting power for trolling motor use". Lithium Pros publish no amp-hour figure for it anywhere, so Minn Kota's 105 amp-hour requirement cannot be tested, and the alternative they give for that case — at least 180 minutes of reserve capacity — is not met either: the 108 minutes on the page is below it, and is scoped to a 50% throttle setting rather than being the BCI measure Minn Kota mean. Both routes fail, and the makers' own descriptions of what the product is for point the same way. This motor takes three 12-volt batteries wired in series, and Minn Kota forbid mixing types in such a string: "Do not connect a Lead-Acid and Lithium in a series to create a 24-volt system". Neither company has named the other.

Minn Kota's manual for this motor asks for at least a 105 amp-hour rating. Lithium Pros rate the TM133 at 33 amp-hours each, 72 amp-hours short of it.

Lithium Pros publish a reserve-minute figure for this pack and it names Minn Kota, which is not a statement that the two go together: their footnote assumes a 50% throttle setting on a Minn Kota motor and a 50% duty cycle, so it is a runtime estimate for one motor at one throttle position. It is not the BCI reserve capacity — minutes at a fixed 25 amps — which is the measure Minn Kota's own requirement refers to, so the two numbers should not be set against each other. Minn Kota attach a condition to the chemistry that no comparison of capacities can settle: this motor is "specifically designed to run on traditional lead-acid batteries", and "running a Minn Kota trolling motor at speeds higher than 85% for a prolonged period could cause permanent damage to the motor". On charging they are the other way about — motors and Precision chargers made in 2021 or later carry a lithium profile, and earlier Precision chargers can charge lithium on the AGM setting. Minn Kota's manual for this motor is explicit that three 12-volt batteries wired in series are required, and their amp-hour figure is asked of the battery rather than of the string. They also forbid mixing types in such a string: "Do not connect a Lead-Acid and Lithium in a series to create a 24-volt system", which rules out part-upgrading an existing lead-acid set. Their battery-guidance table recommends lithium at 125 to 150 amp-hours for a 112 lb motor. Neither company has named the other and nobody has tested the pairing.

Minn Kota attach a condition to the chemistry that no comparison of capacities can settle: this motor is "specifically designed to run on traditional lead-acid batteries", and "running a Minn Kota trolling motor at speeds higher than 85% for a prolonged period could cause permanent damage to the motor". On charging they are the other way about — motors and Precision chargers made in 2021 or later carry a lithium profile, and earlier Precision chargers can charge lithium on the AGM setting. Minn Kota's manual for this motor is explicit that three 12-volt batteries wired in series are required, and their amp-hour figure is asked of the battery rather than of the string. They also forbid mixing types in such a string: "Do not connect a Lead-Acid and Lithium in a series to create a 24-volt system", which rules out part-upgrading an existing lead-acid set. Their battery-guidance table recommends lithium at 125 to 150 amp-hours for a 112 lb motor. Neither company has named the other and nobody has tested the pairing.

Minn Kota's manual for this motor asks for at least a 105 amp-hour rating and says the motor will run on any lead-acid, deep-cycle marine 12-volt battery. Trojan rate the 27 AES at 89 amp-hours at the 20-hour rate each, 16 amp-hours short of it.

Trojan give 158 minutes of reserve at 25 amps, well below the 52 amps Minn Kota state as this motor's maximum draw, and publish nothing at a higher current. Minn Kota's manual for this motor is explicit that three 12-volt batteries wired in series are required. Their amp-hour figure is asked of the battery rather than of the string, so it is compared against a single one.
