Is there hope for my battery?
 

I seem to only get about 3 years out of my batteries.

I think most batteries will last for a pertty set number of recharges - about
150 - 200. So,it depends a lot on how many days you fish a year, not just time.

I too would like to know about Delco Voyagers. Mine is a 1991 and is
still going strong, I thought this was very unusual but I see others
are getting the same results. What ever happened to them?

I do everything the manufaturer recommends,but still,the life expectancey is
the same.
What ever happened to the Delco Voyager series? I've got 3 of these that
I've had (punched) since 1990,and they will still work better than my 3 year
old Nautilus batteries!!
Think'n about kick'n out the bucks 'n go'n for the gell cell.
1 starter 'n 2 troll'n motor batt's will be about $462.00 bucks (ouch)! but
the NAPA man said he's had some for 9 years (?) and still work like new!!
If that's the case,I'll pick 'em this spring 'n give a shot.Sounds cheaper
in the long run.
I fish alot of tourney's, 'n my batteries are right up there next to full
tanks of gas.Without one or the other,you may as well sleep in!

There are pulse chargers available that will help de-sulfate a battery if
that is the problem. Before using one, you generally want to make sure
the
battery is fully charged. This device will pulse causing the sulfating to
be removed from the plates.

My trolling motor battery seems to not have the longevity as it
used
to. It seems like I am only out on the water for a few hours before I
have
to move the speed controller from a 1 to a 2, and so forth. Is there
anything that I can do that will help bring the life back to the
battery?
thanks in advance

I use to get the Delco's at Wal-Mart, and I agree that they are some decent
batteries at a decent price, but I never got three years out of any of them.

My Interstate batteries that came in my new (2002) Nitro are all but gone.
The trolling battery killed over at the beginning of this year, and the
starting battery is headed to the recyclers by Spring. The only trolling
batteries that Elm Hill Marina carried were Deka, so that's what I had to
buy at their inflated prices last spring. It's done well, but I've since
added an extra battery just in case.

You asaked what happened to Delco... are they still making batteries?
