Great video, Chris! My 36v 100ah Enjoybot just came yesterday, Bluetooth app shows 53% charged. So charging it now at the house and then will hook it up to my Minn kota 112# ulterra this weekend for test drive. This video is super helpful thanks again!
Good video glad to now that some people give a strait forward opinion on products,thank for that
Our reputation is more important than a free product. Thanks for the support.
Nice video and great information, Chris! I use a different brand same size w/BT and have been amazed at performance! We can go out and run it hard for two or three trips before it gets down to around 60% which is when I charge it. May change that thinking about the safety aspect of it. Tight lines!
Definitely could help if in a jam, i never could really calculate that before without the app.
Good information
This battery is definitely a beast!
Great info. Thanks for sharing. The price point on this battery is great compared to others. This looks like a viable option for my needs. I'm planning to use it with a Minn Kota Instinct on my boat and a Newport Vessel NK300 on my kayak. Do you know if this would work with the on the go chargers that connect to your outboard?
They will work with any lithium compatible charger rated for 36v, links for the charger we use and the battery are in the description area 👍
Great review. Enjoybot 36V 65Ah will be available soon. :D
100ah is definitely perfect for salt water applications, 65ah would be great for fresh water or smaller saltwater boats.
@@SaltyStrikes Alright, I got it. Thank you! :)
Nice review. I’m looking at adding a trolling motor to my R222. Not a ton of space on the bow. What mount did you use for the motor?
This should help -> czcams.com/video/1NQjzhaIJx0/video.htmlsi=xr4tP_OEJmhIAQjD
you landing net looks like it made easy work of that shark, what are the details on that?
Its rock solid, been using it for a few years now amzn.to/3K5scy1
What are the dimensions of a 36 volt Lithium battery. I want to know if it will fit in my spot.

@SaltyStrikes Heads up for you and your readers. When using LiFePO4 (lithium) batteries, the electric trolling motor manufacturers, including Minnkota, have a statement in the owner's manual saying to avoid using the highest trolling motor settings (such as 9.5 and 10) for long periods of time. This because lithium batteries don't suffer from voltage sag like lead acid batteries and so the electric motor is working harder, with more output, than if the voltage was sagging and this can allow the electric motor to overheat. Luckily, with lithium, you are getting nearly the same thrust output at 9 as you are at 9.5 or even 10 with lead acid batteries as the voltage drops as they are depleted.
As for storage and recharging, LiFePO4 batteries can be depleted down to about 0% State of Charge (SOC) but doing so is at the expense of cycle life. Since these batteries have around 3,500 cycles before degrading below 80% original Ah, it probably doesn't matter to most users. But for those that want the most cycles and longevity out of your batteries, avoid depleting below 20% SOC on a regular basis. Not quite as bad and running low, is letting them sit at 100% SOC for extended periods of time, especially in a hot environment. If you use allows, only charge them up to 80% or 90% for your fishing trip. But even if you choose to run them up to 100%, the best practice is to wait to do so until the morning of, or the night before, you use them. Meaning, leave them at whatever SOC they are when you come back from a fishing trip rather than immediately charging them back up to 100% and letting them sit there. Just make sure you remember to charge them up the day before you leave.
This take a change of thinking compared to lead acid that like to be recharged to 100% immediately and then sit with a smartcharger on them at 100%. Lithium should sit at 40% to 60% state of charge and then be charged up right before use. Really important to not let a lithium sit on a charger right at 100% all the time. If you are forgetful, you can use a timer to shut off after so many hours, change your lithium charger float voltage to basically be nothing, or change your charger bulk charge voltage to only charge up to a lower voltage than 100% full.
First thanks for the very insightful videos on trilling motors. In the past 7 to 8 months you reviewed two different videos with positive reviews. I came away from this video with you favoring the enjoybot over the 36v Li Time. Would you agree with my assessment? Can you elaborate either way on which one you would select at this time knowing what you know now. I am looking at my options for a seahunt gamefish 25 vs going with a significantly more expensive Abyss...thanks in advance.
@@coiaf i have them both, we have four 24v 200ah LiTime batteries in our 5th wheel RV and this Enjoybot 36v is working great, several close friends just put the Enjoybot 36v in there boats too. LiTime has a Bluetooth app now also now. I would definitely recommend this Enjoybot 36v, so far so good.
You are way too efficient and responsive, sir. I really appreciate it! Keep up the great work and I will keep watching and liking!!!
One more question, do you recommend a "on board / on the run" charger. I contacted enjoybot but they said the only provide a standard charger.

The enjoybot charger does not come with permanent connections to fasten to the battery and extend to an outlet so that it can be plugged in when back at the dock. Has anyone installed such a setup with success? If so can you share?
I have a Robalo 246 Cayman. Will that enjoy bot 36v 100 AH work ok in my boat ? I also have the 36v MK Terrova.
Absolutely, friend just got one for his 26’ cat
Thanks for reply they offer one with a charger for 1200.00. How hard was it to connect to the app ? I could not find it in the Apple app store. Ps love your show thanks
@@johnkirk7251 heres the charger I use, it’s only $39 amzn.to/4aU7WKy
The battery is only $979 amzn.to/4c2Cv1y
That will save you $200
When you get the battery there will be a QR code to scan that will send you to the APP
Chris what did you use for a battery tray ?
Good info! I recently purchased a LiTime 36V 100Ah battery for my 26 bay boat and have been really impressed with its performance so far. I ran my trolling motor offshore for 4 hours and it only used 10% of my battery capacity. I also have a battery shunt and the LiTime digital battery monitor installed on my dash (super handy and no need to mess with my phone to see battery info).
I’ve got a 246 robolo and trying to decide which is better 3 12v lithiums or one 36v 100ah. Your comments I think made my decision. Thanks Did you buy all your stuff from Li Time ?
What did you use for a battery tray ?
I purchased everything from LiTime's Amazon store.
I searched for a battery tray that would work and had no luck finding anything, so I ended up using the foam packaging tray that the battery ships on and 2 nylon trailer tie down straps to secure the battery in place. So far, it's worked great and the foam shipping piece helps to prevent vibrations from going into the battery while the boat is underway.
Thanks for info. I may be doing the same. I can’t find a battery tray either
I’ve been using a monster marine 36v/65 on my kraken with the power pole charge on our sportsman 262, it has been flawless!
I have been using a Lossigy 36v 100ah @ $900 with Blue Tooth on the same trolling motor. Been amazing, multiple fishing trips per charge. I get about 1-5% per hour. Mine is a Robalo R180. so slightly smaller than your boat. *** Also you should never maintain 10 on a Minn Kota with Lithium batteries Can damage the motor.
It really surprised me people are even still using lead acid anymore, these batteries are definitely a beast.
Sounds good. What did you use for a battery tray ?
@@johnkirk7251 No tray, I mounted some starboard to the floor on all 4 sides. Then used footman loops and mini ratchet straps.
