    REDODO Batteries

    The diehard is an RV battery not a true deep cycle, most LifePo4 batteries cannot be used as cranking battery.

    LiFePO Batteries ???

    Time USB claims a much higher charge rate up to 2c can be used but will shorten overall life of the battery. Their recommendations are used for longest life span. All my communications with them have come directly from China according to their addresses. They have responded quickly to all my...

    20p6 Merc 6hp 4 stroke--runs on half choke, revs up and stalls

    Just cleaning the carb may not remove gunk from those teeny tiny passages, use a wire or blow air thru to be sure they are open. If it did run well in the recent past, but doesn't now....you have a blockage somewhere.

    LiFePO Batteries ???

    That is why I bought the charger Time USB recomended, it has the wakeup mode. When folks are spending big money on these batteries why scrimp on a charger that is known to work correctly. One thing I gave learned in my 15 plus years of Lipo battery experience, don't cut corners if you want...

    LiFePO Batteries ???

    Not sure what the recommendations are on the 100 ah battery, I bought the 140 and went with their recommendations on a charger, I figure they made them, they should know what is best ! The 140 ah battery does come with a bigger BMS unit with more safety features, so their advertising states...

    Wine glass harmonic sound switching from 3 blade to 4 blade

    Been using them for decades, never an issue, but other brands have been a crap shoot. Then again, as don't use fancy props just std ones.

    LiFePO Batteries ???

    Been around lipo batteries for well over 15 years and all function far better when dropped down to a storage level of charge. Those that have been stored at near full charge have had much shorter life spans or decreased run times. No big deal to discharge them to storage charge. With my...

    TimeUSB LifePO4 battery issues

    Just an update on my Time USB 140 ah battery. With boating season close now, decided to do the first full charge. Was cool because phone app told me what state the charge was in and how long until full charge. Full charge holds 147 ah. Glad to see over the rated capacity. Bought an inverter...
