I'm in the market for one and was looking at the Ultramax, however that has one year warranty compared to the Eco-Worthy, which is a bit cheaper via their web.
Also is there any downside to having/using a pair of 50ah LifePo rather than a single 100ah
Cheers

Looking at getting one of these to replace my 2 lead acid leisure batteries. At 100Ah it seems like a good punt as it's around the same price as the Ultramax 75Ah. The Ultramax does include a charger in the price. Does this one?

No charger included but I didn't need one. £348 was a great price.

Just bought one of these on offer at just under £350 to replace all my knackered leas acid ones, hopefully it's a good investment, find out in a few weeks and will give some feedback

Used it for a week on a big public reservoir powering my 3.4mtr Zodiac/ minn kota endura 55lb and Ray marine

It was brilliant, charged it twice for a couple of hours on a generator to boost it and lasted well

One warning is you get very little notice when a lithium battery is low and it will cut off suddenly and won't run the outboard at all

Isn't there a power indicator actually on the motor handle to indicate how much battery life is left ??

I know my bison has it and when it's at 40% ish I recharge it for a few hours

I kept an eye on it via a voltage meter on my Raymarine and wanted to see how low it got before it cut out, pushed my luck retrieving rigs when packing up and had to row back lol

cheapest Ive seen. Are all batteries the same ? is so cheap, too cheap......asking for trouble ? But I dont see many reputable companies supplying any evidence there models are any better or safer ?

Thoughts ??
Are you sure?
