Connect-Ease Double Time 24V Parallel Trolling Motor Wiring Kit

• PARALLEL ADDS HOURS, SERIES ONLY ADDS VOLTS: Two 24V batteries in parallel keep you at 24 volts and double the amp hours. Two 50Ah batteries become 100Ah at the motor. That is the wiring change that buys you a longer day on the water.
• MORE AVAILABLE AMPS, NOT JUST MORE HOURS: A lithium battery's management system limits how many amps it will hand out continuously. Two batteries in parallel raise that ceiling to nearly double, about 1.8 times one battery's rating once cabling losses are factored in, which keeps a high-draw motor from having its power restricted when you run hard for long stretches.
• ONE CHARGER, BOTH BATTERIES: The integrated charging lead lets a single 24V charger service the pair. Mates with the charging connections used by Dakota Lithium and Amped 24V chargers. Adapter included.
• BUILT ON 8 AWG TINNED MARINE WIRE: UL1426 tinned copper, heat-shrink sealed splices, corrosion-resistant quick connects. Mismatched cabling on a parallel bank has been measured pulling 15 to 38 percent more current through one battery than the other; matched cables and bus bars bring that down to a 24 to 25 percent split, close to even. This harness ships with matched leg lengths on purpose.
• FOR ANGLERS WHO RUN OUT OF BATTERY BEFORE THEY RUN OUT OF DAYLIGHT: Guides, tournament anglers, and anyone fishing current or wind all day. Batteries are not included. This is the wiring that makes two of them work as one.

" Connect-Ease Double Time 24V Parallel Battery Kit - RCE224VCHK Here is the thing most anglers learn the hard way: putting batteries in series adds volts, not hours. Three 12V 100Ah batteries in series give you 36 volts and still only 100 amp hours. If you want a longer day, you need parallel. Double Time wires two 24V lithium batteries in parallel to a single 24V trolling motor. Voltage stays at 24. Capacity doubles. So does the continuous amperage the bank can deliver, and that matters more than most people realize - a lithium battery's management system caps how much current it will supply, and a motor that asks for more than the bank can give will run fine at low speed and then lose power when you push it. An integrated charging lead lets one 24V charger handle both batteries. The harness is built from UL1426 tinned copper with matched leg lengths, because a parallel bank only shares load evenly when both sides see the same resistance. A 100Ah lithium battery delivers roughly the usable capacity of a 200Ah lead-acid battery, which is the other half of why two batteries in parallel add up to a full day on the water instead of half of one.
