There is a LOT more to lithium than just buying one, the battery itself will probably only be 50% of the cost involved. When I go lithium the AGM battery will then be the engine start battery and the current engine start battery will be removed. This is assuming my insurance will cover lithium batteries, which many companies will not do.

I am wasting an inordinate amount of time researching charger inverters, and I think although the lithium batteries may come down more in the future, I think because I need new batteries the time is now.

I have a ProNautic 15 amp charger with a battery temperature probe that is necessary for correct charging of any lead-acid battery. It can charge 1, 2, or 3 batteries and has a lot of settings for various charge profiles. It works fine, it is only being removed because I got a bigger charger. They sell for $350-$400 new, I will send this one to any USA address for $150 shipped. Canada might be more, I would have to check. (Odyssey battery company told me they want their battery charged with at least a 30 amp charger and ideally a lot more, apparently they need to be hit hard to stay good) Joe Della Barba Coquina C&C 35 MK I Kent Island MD USA Please show your appreciation for this list and the Photo Album site and help me pay the associated bills.
