will this battery work with a trolling motor?

Hi,Yes it should work fine with a trolling motor, HINT; Get a 7AH solar charger to lay next to it so you can extend the trolling time.Then you can plug it in for a good full charge.Very sturdy, very strong, Hope this helps

Shawn, this battery is for game camera or fish finders. Only has 7.0 amps. A trolling motor battery is similar to a car battery. Thanks

It will run it until the charge is depleted. This Optima Battery has a capacity of 55 Ah(amp hours) with a reserve capacity of 120 minutes. If your trolling motor uses a 55 amp motor, it will last 1 approximately 1 hour at full thrust.

Yes, but not through this panel. The trolling motor usually needs a 50 amp service, these are 10 amp max each switch. On my Jon boat, I use the Bigfoot Trolling Motor Switch - Amazon.com‎

I just ordered it for a jet ski battery which is pretty much a motorcycle battery. I will let you know.

No, it will not. Nothing will work on an outboard motor. That said for your question ,This stuff is worthless, looks like koolaid and works just as good.

Yes it is. Here is a link you can do further research on this trolling motor. http://www.minnkotamotors.com/

If you are asking whether it has battery connection lugs built in, then the answer is no. It does not. If you are asking whether it has fore and aft plates to mount/clamp your trolling motor, then yes it does.

U can use either reg battery cables or smaller 12V cables, battery has both large & small post. I've had 1 for 2 yrs its a good battery for trolling, get 4 to 5 hours on 50lb motor

I see some confused answers, so I offer: A trolling motor that can run on less than 10 amps (or a 12v 40 pound thrust or less operated most of the time in mid-range, not full "throttle") should get at least 3 hours of trolling out of this battery... that is my interest in this battery.

No. This wire is sized to handle the load from the charger. I haven't checked but I doubt it is of a large enough gauge to handle the full load from your trolling motor. I do not think it would be safe / electrically responsible to do what you want to do. Find a calculator or forum online to determine what gauge wire you need to handle the load you want to pull over the distance you want to pull it and buy the right size cable by the foot. It's no fun when your boat catches on fire. Trust me I have seen it happen.

No. It is not designed to be a starting battery. I would do fine on a trolling motor though.if your looking for a really prime starting battery check out the Optima blue top marine battery.

I haven't used it on that motor.. But this is a very simple ground switch and it is rated for 24v. The wires it is made with are very heavy duty. It will work on any trolling motor if installed properly.

This battery is used to power my RV travel trailer, and does great! I don't know about a trolling motor, but this IS a deep cycle gel battery and should power any 12 volt system for quite a while before needing a charge.

The trolling motor is a good motor for a small boat or in your case a raft. A 12 volt sealed battery(CAR) will work fine you just have to mount it so it does not move in your floatation device. Charge time on the battery depends on how hard you run the motor. And yes you have to re-charge the battery with a battery charger type car battery charger.

The transducer that comes with the unit should be okay to us on a trolling motor. You will need a mount for a trolling motor, though.

Yeah, just make sure you get the right battery. I'd suggest a more powerful troll though, low speed isn't going to do much for you on this one.
