Yes, what he said on the link, Linc. LOL
I kinda like the idea because you have the built in LVC if you want to get interesting and use some of those Lipo Packs you have laying around.
A trolling motor cools itself pretty well. I wonder if you could bump it up to 4S voltage and travel faster than you can swim?
How many pound thrust motor are you working with?
One thing about trolling motors, much is lost in the crappy factory wiring. The more voltage drop you have, the less total watts of power the motor puts out.
Think overkill. Even 10ga. silicone wire gets warm after 10 or 15 minutes at 50 amps. Maybe rewire everything with 8Ga.?
My 55lb thrust motor is putting out about 650 watts now.
PS.....have you seen my trolling motor thread lately?
