My Godson has been running a set of 3 of these(36 v tm) for going on 4 years, do not recommend for a ulterra but the ultrex will be fine he is running the garmin.

I was considering it for a house battery but I saw a video where a guy took one apart.  He had done it 18 months ago.  They have made cheap changes to it so I am out.

What do you use it for at the house?

Is your House battery also the engine starting battery? I had to stick with an old lead acid for mine due to the charging system in my old girl.  Not sure about your Verado....i bet wrench will know

No in fact I have 2 series 31 agms running 2 Solix units.  They are nearing the end and I am thinking lithium for replacement.  The Verado is powered by an X2.

Ill be honest I run two 9" graphs, one 7",  livescope, foot pedal for my troller , and live well pump all day with an auxiliary aerator just for extra in the hot months , for tournaments. And my old carbed motor has to crank way more than a fuel injected engine to get her breathing and i have never had an issue with power. I just run a 27 series pro guide for my house battery. I do replace it every 2 ish years, just because i dont want issues. Never shows any signs of going bad in those 2 years.

I had 2 Lowrance hds units and they would kill a battery graveyard dead inside of a year.  That happened on 2 different boats.  When I switched to Humminbirds, I hooked 2 of them to a stand alone house battery and they killed it in 11 months.  It was replaced under warranty.  11 months later that one was dead.  It was replaced under warranty but the distributor said that he wouldn’t replace any more so I put in a second series 31 and have been doing fine.  However, last time out I got a low voltage warning and had to shut one down to finish the day.

A lithium 100 AH should do the job of 2 agms for about the same or less money and drop about 100 lbs.

That just seems like somthing is eating up so much power and i just cant wrap my head around it being the graphs alone , Ive had a couple HDS and a humminbird 12 and still never had any issue with house power with one battery. Im all Garmin now but i doubt it make much difference

I used to get low voltage warning on my humminbird during the start of the outboard but that was about it. I think it was more due to small diameter wiring that came in m boat
