Welcome to Fishy Angler channel.
In this video I’m building DIY dry battery box for Amped 60Ah lithium (LiFEPO4) battery to power Minn Kota Endura C2 30lb trust trolling motor on my kayak.
This video is part of small series documenting project to power my Wilderness System Radar 115 kayak.

Once you start building battery boxes it becomes an obsession. Really nice job

@FishyAngler 6 месяцев назад

Thanks. I’m still not obsessed. 😀 But enjoy using it.

I dont want to be that guy, but what about putting the battery in sideways? wiring more difficult but more room? heat shrink? Nice build. everyone does things a little different. great job...

@FishyAngler 4 месяца назад

Some lithium battery manufacturers do not recommend put battery on the side or up side down. This setup works well for me. Cheers.

@almighty3372 Год назад

a voltage meter will make this box much much better, very easy to install.

@FishyAngler Год назад

I did install it. See my battery test video.

@FishyAngler 3 года назад

Thank you. I spent some time looking for a waterproof box for this battery that will be compact without success, hopefully this video save someone some research time.

@Delmarvafishing 3 года назад

Cool, I was wondering how you were cruising around punishing fish on the yak

@FishyAngler 3 года назад

Setup is not ready yet. Just building it… Right now I’m cruising on my HelixPD pedal drive.

@redhatstory10 3 года назад

Awesome video sir…yiuewww

@FishyAngler 3 года назад

Thank you for watching.

@greenbluemonkey 2 года назад

Great video. I am about to tackle this myself. But if you still look at these comments, I am wondering why you need a separate cable system for your battery charger. Can't you use the same cables, through the same housing, as you use for your output to your motor?

@FishyAngler 2 года назад

You can use the same cables to charge the battery if you have connector on it. My motor cables are ran through the kayak and I leave them there while take the battery in the house to charge. That why I need the other connector. That’s just what I do.

@bobbybass1944 2 месяца назад

Great video . If it's ok, I have a couple of questions, has placing the breaker on top of the battery cause any issues and should I leave breaker off until everything is completely wired ?? Appreciate the help .

@FishyAngler 2 месяца назад

Never had problem with the breaker. Foam is soft, never tripped the breaker. If you mean until you connect trolling motor, then no. I never turn it off. Its job is to prevent short.

@bobbybass1944 2 месяца назад

Thank you for answering my questions.

@rodrigoelgu 2 года назад

is 60 amp enough juice for all day ? i dont know if i shoud go with 60 or 100 amp but 100 os double the price what would you recomend.

@FishyAngler 2 года назад

It depends how much you plan to motor. For me, 60ah enough for a day to move from place to place as a fish. But if you are plan trolling, I’d recommend 100ah. Watch my battery test video here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-k_EwNQjQeu0.html

Does it matter that it's not vented when it's a Lithium battery?

@FishyAngler 2 года назад

It’s lithium battery and is completely sealed. There is no ventilation needed.

@yakcatdrifter6820 2 года назад

Will this box fit the 80 amp model? Same everything u did

@FishyAngler 2 года назад

No, 80 amps won’t fit. It’s too big for the box.

@timwelch8877 5 месяцев назад

@GmGarlo 2 года назад

Do you just push the button on your breaker when you charge your battery or do you remove the negative cable instead ?

@FishyAngler 2 года назад

I’m charging the battery through the same port I power trolling motor. So, I don’t do anything. I just unplug motor, connect charger to the same port and charge.
