Hydros Kraken Backup Battery Options

[surlytx]

I'm looking for suggestions for a battery to use with the Kraken for backup.

Thanks!

In default mode, any deep cycle marine type battery. Lithium Ion you need to change the prongs inside and get a battery controller/ monitor.

You’re better off spending a bit more money and buying a lipo battery, it can run down to basically zero without voltage drops and has a duty life of 1000’s of cycles. You will need to move the jumper in the kraken as it’s meant to charge a lead acid battery and buy a separate lipo charger.

Didn’t want to add more to the equation, just what the controller was designed for. I wanted lithium but just settled for the the lead. I know i know but i wanted to cut as much clutter as possible.
