KILLARNEY MOUNTAIN LODGE
AND CONFERENCE CENTRE

SPECTACULAR

There's no sense investing in high-definition electronics to
only handicap your system with an erratic power supply.

Ideally situated between the white quartzite mountain range
known as La Cloche and a rolling blanket of pink granite, sits the
charming Georgian Bay village of Killarney Ontario.

As batteries begin to drain, voltage drops, which can
lead to degraded performance.

to a point where there's only about 15% of its charge left," says
Maryanov. "Performance-wise, lithium-ion gives you maximum
performance for a much longer time than an AGM."
SIZE MATTERS
Weight is always a concern on a boat, and that's still another area
where lithium-ion shines. "Where a Group 31 AGM battery has
102 amp hours, a similar lithium-ion battery has a capacity of
around 400 amp hours, so it's roughly four times more capacity
in a unit with the same physical size and weight," says Maryanov.
That represents a huge amount of weight and space savings
in an average yacht - space that could instead be used for stowing
supplies. "That more compact footprint is a big advantage for
lithium-ion," says Xantrex's Donald Hasler. "Lithium-Ion batteries
are significantly smaller and lighter than deep-cycle AGM
batteries of comparable power."
GET SMART
As if being smaller, lighter, higher in usable capacity and longerlasting aren't enough of an advantage, lithium-ion batteries are
also smarter than AGM cells. What that means is that unlike your
current batteries, these things can actually communicate with
other equipment on the boat.
