Thank you for sharing this insightful information regarding the Power Pole CHARGE specifically in combination with Lithium batteries. Weather we are performing an in house install or putting together an electronics package for one of our online customers, we chose the Power Pole CHARGE as our #1st choice in battery management systems.
Great information. Thanks for posting
I received my power pole charging system as a gift. I don't remember seeing anything in the manual, or a disclosure anywhere on the box that it will not fully charge two 50ah lithium batteries (both to 100%) wired together for a 24-volt system. But it seems that way. Battery manufacture told me so and suggested I get a single bank 10 amp charger to top both batteries off. Why would I want to have to do that when I own the most expensive and touted charging system on the market. Power pole said the battery percentage didn't matter, just the volts. I will follow with an update once I figure out the truth.
Could a user have a 12v agm cranking battery with a dedicated 12v lithium battery for livescope, graphs, and boat features, and then a single 36v lithium for trolling motor? Or does the dedicated electronics battery have to be an agm battery wired with the cranking battery? thanks in advance
Thanks for the video. Sounds like running lithium trolling motor batteries in series for a 36v system isn’t as ideal for someone running them hard with short recharge times and you recommended single 36v lithium batteries instead. How would it compare to running say two 36v batteries in parallel? Would running two 36v lithium’s in parallel have potential to require longer than ideal recharge times as well?
Yes, you are correct. Two 36v lithium’s in parallel will take longer to charge than a single 36v lithium. Your question brings up a very good subject.
What is the best way to wire two 36v lithium batteries for the trolling motor?
In parallel or independently with a battery switch? Both wiring configurations have positives, benefits and some drawbacks.
Trolling motor batteries wired in parallel.
• In parallel the Power-Pole Charge will charge and maintain both 36v batteries as ONE large 36v battery.
• If you drain or use a lot of the two 36v batteries in parallel it will take longer to charge both batteries than a single 36v battery.
• If one of the batteries wired in parallel has an issue with the BMS board it could cause the other battery to have an issue and your trolling motor will stop working and/or the Power-Pole Charge will not work properly.
Two 36v lithium batteries wired independently with a battery selector switch to toggle between the two batteries when needed.
• This set up seems to be the way a lot of the Professional anglers are moving to. (Emergency backup method)
• The Power-Pole Charge will charge and maintain your main (battery #1) 36v trolling motor battery and the second battery (battery #2) is there waiting as a backup should you use ALL the power in your trolling battery #1.
• The second battery is also there as an “emergency” backup should you have an issue with the BMS with trolling battery #1.
• One thing to keep in mind is that the Power-Pole Charge is only hooked up to battery #1 so the Power-Pole Charge will only charge and maintain battery #1 with the outboard and when plugged into the wall at home.
• You would need to carry a separate 36v battery charge to maintain your emergency, backup battery#2.
• You would only have to charge battery #2 every few months to be sure it is topped off just in case you ever need it in an emergency.
Thanks for the video, I’m just wondering... could I use a Normal lead acid Cranking battery as my cranking battery/starting battery to start my engine and run livewells, then have a single 36v 50 ahmp lithium battery for my trolling motor, and then two 12 volt 100 ahmp batteries ran in parallel (which would mean 12volts 200 ahmps ran in parallel to run my Lowrance Electronics, is this doable? Or can the power pole charge only charge Lithium’s at once or Only Lead Acids at once, or can it do both?
Both. I have two lead acid 12 volts in parallel. And one 36 volt for my T/M.
What happens using it in very shallow water and it gets caught on bottom, does it auto shut off?
Before using a product like this you need to assess how much power is coming in. Because without that you have nothing. If you have a 115 HP likely the max number of amps that are coming from the motor is only 35. So it would be nice if they would answer all of the questions posted here and provide some real data on how this charging system handles different sized outboards.
I have power pole charge with amg batteries for start and trolling motor, I was wondering when going to lithium 36 volt can you leave the charger plug in after full charge like you do to maintain full charge?
... Good question because I have read to NEVER over charge the lithium battery.

The Power-Pole CHARGE is capable of charging lithium batteries. As a 4-in-1 system, once the batteries are fully charged it will go into management mode and monitor the entire system.
I have 4 12v lithiums.
1x125ah cranking
3x 50ah in series to 36v
My question is, Can I still use my NOCO genius 10x4 charger to charge my batteries at my house and have the PP charge active on the water to charge my batteries? Will i still get the benefit of sharing power to all batteries.
TIA
Great question! There is no need for an additional charger. The Power-Pole CHARGE is a 4-in-1 system. Once you have returned to shore/dock and plugged into AC, the Power-Pole CHARGE will charge your battery system as a traditional onboard charger.
@@PowerPoleTotalBoatControl Yes, but how many days will it take to accomplish a full charge on the four batteries? You guys seem to forget some of us like to take the boat out the next day not the next week. It was a $1600 learning experience for me. Thanks!
What if you have a separate battery for graphs, pumps, power pole etc?
... If may, THAT battery is your house battery and what you mentioned is it's function.
Sounds like according to this video, a house battery is not, may not, be needed. IDK
.
I have a bay boat with 5 batteries. ..
1- AGM Starting battery. That is ALL it is to do, NOTHING else.
1- AGM House battery. This powers my 4 Lowrance screens, Twin Power Pole Blades, Live well, bait well, bilge pumps, lights, etc.
3- Wet cell Group 27 batteries. These ONLY power the Motorguide 36V trolling motor. These are what I am considering changing to a single 36V lithium battery.
How I would hook up the PP System will require more investigation.
. Jeff .
The Power-Pole CHARGE is capable of charging a dual 12v system run in parallel.
Does this only work with Lithium batteries? Can I do a 36V battery for the TM and still have a lead acid 12V battery for the cranking? I would have to have two battery chargers if I went that way right? I have heard about people going to lithium batteries, but I thought they were only doing that for the electronics and TM. I didn't know you could use a lithium for the cranking until I saw this video. The charger does or does not charger lead acid?
Yes, the Power-Pole CHARGE works for a 24v or 36v trolling motor configuration in either a single case or in series. The Power-Pole CHARGE will also work with a 12v lithium cranking battery, you will need to use the Power-Pole C-Monster app to configure your setup once the Power-Pole CHARGE has been installed.
This system is a joke for any lithium set up. It was installed in my boat as part of a restoration by a specialty boat rigging company. I am a fishing guide and depend on my charging system daily. If you use your boat once every two weeks, maybe you could get by. Power Pole tech support told me that the power transfer feature is not valid with lithium yet no where in the sales material does it give you this fact.
