Understanding Lithium-Ion (LiFePO4) Battery & Their Effect On Conventional Trolling Motors vs Trolling Motors with Intergraded Circuit Board
LiFePO4 batteries were designed to be light weight and pack more energy.  LiFePO4 batteries were engineered to store as much voltage from solar panels. 
The stored voltage is unregulated and will burnout conventional trolling motors or shorten their lifespan, because the collected volts are too high (+18 volts = 12.8 - 16.0 volts DC), whereas conventional trolling motors operate on regulated 12 volts.  Therefore, to regulate the LiFePO4 batteries voltage output, a trolling motor requires an intergraded circuit board to control speed and regulate the voltage, along with a heavy gauged battery cable, lithium-ion plug and an auto reset fuse.
 Trolling motors with intergraded circuit board ​tend to have a longer lifespan and extended fishing time while kayaking.   Read More
​Conventional Trolling Motors are the most commonly used motor for boating and kayaking. They are cost affective and are equipped with 5 forward / 2 reverse speeds. They are primarily designed to propel you quickly to your desired destination or fishing hole, and then reposition your boat or kayak when currents or wind blow you off course.  
Understanding Conventional Speeds:
- 1st and 2nd speeds are designed for “short bursts” only, not to exceed 15 minutes intervals at a time. "Not for trolling", as it will damage these two speeds.  
- 3rd speed is for covering larger areas, traveling and mostly getting around while conserving battery.  
- 4th speed is for traveling longer distances faster.
- 5th speed is for when speed is required, such as a change in the weather, current, chop waters or an emergency; getting to safety or shore quickly.
Battery Compatibility:  Deep Cycle Marine, AGM and GEL batteries.  Conventional trolling motors are  Not compatible  with Lithium-Ion / LiFePO4 batteries                         
Lithium Iron - LiFeP04 Compatible Trolling Motors - For LiFeP04 Battery Use​
These motors are designed to be used with LiFeP04 battery and built with an intergraded circuit board which regulates the voltage and allows speed adjustments in fractional increments, from 1/4 to 5 mph. This motor includes heavy gauged wire, auto reset fuse, lithium-ion plug, which handles 60 to 200 amp LiFePO4 batteries.
Variable Speed Trolling Motors are one of the most improved technology today. Boaters and kayakers are gravitating to trolling motors with variable speeds due to their many benefits,
Benefits of Variable Speed Include:
- Infinite Speed Range of "0-100 speed forward and reverse", which allows for trolling at very low speeds for hours without affecting any speeds of the motor. 
- A Micro Processer aka (Pulse Width Modulator) to increase battery range 3 to 4 times, allowing for hours of continuous trolling.
- Controlled Amperage provides steady trolling in currents and wind while conserving battery at 95% efficiency.
- Integrated Electronic Board System senses over and undercharge of voltage, eliminates voltage spikes, 95% efficiency in power and torque.
- Soft start: no spooking of fish while trolling and lighter in weight than conventional trolling motors,
​Battery Compatible:  Lithium-Ion / LiFePO4, Deep Cycle Marine, AGM and GEL batteries.

Trolling motors require a 12v battery to operate.  Depending on the pounds of thrust of the motor you choose,  you may require a back up battery for longer range use.    
Battery range will vary due to size, weight and type of  kayak in addition to kayaks load, wind and current.  Additional battery info click here
Remote Controllers are IP54 and Trolling Motors are IP64: Splash Proof, Not Submersible.
