How Much Battery Do You Need for Your Electronics?
Every fish finder, chartplotter and sonar unit draws a small, steady amount of current. Adding those numbers up tells you how much battery capacity (Ah) you need to run your electronics for a full day on the water.
Sizing Your Battery
- Add up the amp draw of every device you will run from the battery (see the chart below).
- Multiply that total by the number of hours you are usually on the water.
- Add 20% to the result. This extra capacity keeps the battery big enough for a 10-hour day or longer even after about 4 years of service.
Example (16V): two Humminbird Helix 10 units (2.16A each) plus a Garmin LiveScope (0.6A) draw 4.92A. Over a 10-hour day that is about 49Ah, and adding 20% brings it to about 59Ah, so a 16V 60Ah battery is the right fit.
12V vs 16V
The units listed below all operate above 16 volts, so running them on a 16V system has no effect on their warranty. On 16V they draw less current, which means roughly 20% longer run time from the same amp-hour rating, a separate clean power supply, better clarity and signal returns, and less heat for the units to absorb, so they run cooler. For example, a 16V 80Ah battery delivers similar run time to a 12V 100Ah battery.

PowerHouse Lithium Limited Warranty
Warranty Period
3-year total warranty on deep cycle batteries up to 30Ah
Coverage
- Free repair or replacement any time within 24 months of the purchase date (exclusions apply).
- From year 2 to year 3, a replacement is offered at 25% off.
- Warranty items are subject to the cost of shipping from PowerHouse Lithium to your location. Warranty value is based on current MSRP.
Registration
Register your battery with PowerHouse Lithium within 90 days of purchase. If it is not registered within 90 days, the warranty period begins at the battery's manufacture date. Proof of ownership is required, and warranties are not transferable; this limited warranty applies to the original purchaser and to United States residents only.
Inspection and Service
A battery may need to be shipped to PowerHouse Lithium for inspection. If the inspection finds a manufacturing defect, the standard warranty process is followed at no charge. If the issue is caused by user error or misuse (for example, a dead battery from improper charging or not recharging a fully drained battery, over-tightened straps or terminal bolts, or loose connections that melt the terminals), a repair and shipping fee of up to $150 may apply. Have the battery's serial number ready when submitting a claim; it is on the side of the battery and in the PHL app.
Exclusions
The warranty does not cover water damage, impact or collision; physical damage to the battery case or mishandling; products that have been opened, modified or tampered with; tampering with or removal of manufacture date codes; or use in applications other than those the battery was designed for, or above its rated continuous current. It also does not cover a battery that has reached its normal end of life (2,000 cycles), which may occur before the end of the warranty period depending on use.
Obtaining Warranty Service
Submit a warranty claim through PowerHouse Lithium's warranty application. The product may need to be shipped back for inspection.
Visit PowerHouse Lithium's Warranty Policy to review the full warranty terms.
