GOLDENMATE 12V 100Ah Group 24 Bluetooth LiFePO4 Battery, Deep Cycle Lithium Battery, Built-in 100A BMS, Up to 15000 Cycles, Perfect for RV, Solar System, Marine, Trolling Motor, Off-grid Setups

Great battery at a good price. I'm glad I got the version that has Bluetooth as my trolling motor don't have the ability to accurately display the charge levels on LiPo batteries. I chose the 100 amp hour battery and it should give me about 6 hours of runtime on my 46 lb trolling motor running between 40-60%. I haven't tried it on the water yet, however, I did run the motor inside a large trash can filled with water and testing was excellent. It was during my tests that I discovered I HAD to make use of the Bluetooth as my motor kept displaying 100% charged. I am incredibly impressed with the Bluetooth as the app is super easy to use and set up and provides all the pertinent information including anticipated runtime based on the current discharge rate. FYI: The App you use is GOLDENMATE. I'm not sure why this information isn't included in the description and Amazon's Rufis couldn't find this information. This made it necessary to contact their Customer Service and within a short time, I was chatting with one of their representatives on a Saturday evening. (24/7 is their support which is awesome!) Another nice feature about the app is that it not only shows expected runtime, but also expected charge time as well based on rate of charge. YES, you DO want to use a charger designed to work with LiPo batteries. These (types) of batteries are extremely light compared to lead acid batteries and have a much longer lifespan as well. The only thing not perfect with the battery I got is that one of the clips for the battery strap was broken so I cannot use the strap. In my case, the battery will be kept inside a rain proof battery box (container) so I can lift it with the handles on the container. My Use: This battery will be the main source of power for my 10' Intex Mariner 4 inflatable dinghy with 46 lb trolling motor. When my little (project) boat is complete, it will have carpeted wood floors, Bimini top, carpeted bow & stern storage areas, bow & stern cleats for anchor lines, 2 rolling, swivel fold down seats, rod holders, running lights, interior lights, storage for tools, mini cooler, tackle box, and life jackets. I may also rig up a clear tarp to attach to the front of the Bimini top and bow of the boat for additional protection from rain. (I live in Florida which means frequent scattered showers and of course, 100% humidity!) In summary, I was a bit disappointed with the strap tab being broken, but the excellent 24/7 customer support and the very helpful app made up for this one little flaw.

Decent capacity, lightweight, works great for multiple uses, when paired with a battery box works great for camping and running a small inverter. Good value for price/capcacity, Battery is well made and ha sturdy connections. Simple to setup and add to backup power supply.

Perfect to upgrade the RV. Just had to replace the build-in charger for lead battries. Doubled capacity and takes quick charges

The battery so far works very well. It fits in my small boat nice. Pretty easy to set up the Bluetooth app. On the app where it shows the percentage of the battery charge in my opinion is to large. This takes up to much space that could be used for other data for you to see. You be able to see all at one time. The app does work. The works well with my LiTime 20ah battery charger. It is pretty light for a full size battery. Did not weigh it but feels like 20lbs. Do not rely on the built in battery handle. Mine broke but luckly it was not that high up so no damage to the battery but the handle is none function now. The company did refund me 10% of my purchase price but handle still not work. I would not buy this if you want to rely on a handle. If it was not for the handle and the one thing on the app I give it a 5 star. I guess for th price should not complain to much $155. They do sale batteries with better handles, but more money.

I use this battery to run the lights inside my enclosed trailer. It works amazing and holds a charge wonderfully. It's the perfect size for the low draw lighting system I have installed.

I purchased a Golden Mate battery expecting reliable performance, but unfortunately, it failed prematurely. After some use, the battery completely stopped outputting 12V. Upon inspection, I discovered that cell number 4 had died and was producing 0 volts, effectively rendering the entire battery non-functional. Attempts to recharge it were unsuccessful the battery won’t take a charge at all, likely due to the imbalance caused by the failed cell. It’s extremely disappointing for a battery that should be built to last, especially since it’s marketed for off-grid and critical backup use. I expected more durability and quality control. If you’re depending on this battery for any mission critical application, I’d recommend looking elsewhere or at the very least, keeping a close eye on cell voltages with a BMS or external monitor. Support has ignored my emails or is backed up with support tickets. Purchased 2 months ago. Update: Since the battery was charged and put aside after receipt, this means that the battery was normal when received, but was damaged after being put aside. The current battery storage environment is very humid. Analysis shows that improper storage has caused corrosion and damage to the battery pack components and made it unable to charge. Apparently having the battery inside a garage isnt proper storage.

Have had it about a year, probably at about 25 cycles on it. Use it mostly for a trolling motor on a kayak. Can run for hours at full throttle will no loss of power. Also handy to use for other 12v needs. Super light so makes it easy to use. Only gripe is it's difficult to know the state of charge. I just know my motor draws 10amps so I have about 5hours run time. Same goes for charging, you just keep charging it until the internal computer won't take a charge anymore. Helps to have an intelligent charger so you can keep track of how much you think you used vs how much went back in. Lots of batteries out there but this seems to be a good brand.

I have had this in my Prius for about 3 months now and it works great! I know the description says this is not to be used as a starting battery, but on a Prius, this battery does not experience any high-current discharge. The starting of the engine is done with the high-voltage battery.
