These Seahorse SLA Batteries are used for Seahorse Kontikis and winches.
Seahorse Kontiki 9Ah Battery: The smaller 9ah battery is the smaller of the two batteries used in the Seahorse GPS and STD Kontiki’s. The older Seahorse 30’s used 2 * 9ah batteries, or the twin 9ah batteries for the very old units, which is listed elsewhere on the website.
Seahorse Kontiki 14Ah Battery: The long running 14 amp hour (ah) battery comes complete with the leads attached ready to be used. The 14ah battery is used on the Seahorse Electric winch.
DETAILS & Battery Care:
- The 14-ah battery is used on the Seahorse Electric winch, while the 9-ah battery is used on the Seahorse Kontiki.
- All Lead-Acid Batteries need to be kept fully charged. If they are left unchanged, they will very quickly lose their capacity, and your runtime will shorten.
- Lead Acid Batteries will self-discharge and need to be topped up (every three months) if not being used.
- We recommend charging all your batteries, whether used or not, after a fishing trip and placing them on the charger before fishing to ensure they are fully charged.
- Remove the batteries from the Seahorse when charging. Try using and charging the same batteries together. Labelling them is a good way to achieve this. Ensure your connectors are greased with melded grease every six months.
Battery Life:
- All sealed lead-acid (SLA)batteries have a designed life (dropped to 60% of original capacity) of 3 to 5 years, depending on their application.
- They are designed to be kept fully charged and discharged slowly, over hours, not minutes. The Seahorse Kontiki discharges the batteries very quickly, which affects their effective life.
- The Seahorse batteries have a 12-month warranty, and we expect they should last two years before you see a noticeable drop in performance. We have seen batteries five years old, going better than new.
- Older batteries can be used on the winch, where the demands aren’t as high, or for shorter sets.
