Runtime & Performance
Understanding what 3,840Wh means in your specific application helps set accurate expectations before you buy:
| Application | Average Draw | Estimated Runtime |
|---|---|---|
| Trolling motor — slow troll | 10–12A | ~8–10 hours |
| Trolling motor — moderate speed | 18–22A | ~5–6 hours |
| Trolling motor — high speed | 30A+ | ~3 hours |
| Golf cart — 18 holes | Varies | Multiple rounds with reserve |
| Off-grid inverter (400W load) | ~11A | ~9 hours |
| Marine electronics (fishfinder, nav) | 3–5A | 20–30+ hours |
These figures reflect theCanbat 36V 100Ah LiFePO4 Lithium Battery (CLI100-36) — the complete usable capacity. AGM batteries should not be regularly discharged below 50% depth of discharge to avoid accelerated degradation, meaning real-world usable capacity is significantly reduced over time. The Canbat 36V 100Ah LiFePO4 Lithium Battery (CLI100-36) delivers its full 100Ah on every cycle.
Canbat 36V 100Ah LiFePO4 Lithium Battery (CLI100-36) Features:
- High Energy Density: Delivers 3,840Wh of usable energy in a single unit—twice the capacity of the CLI50-36 within the same compact form factor.
- Flat Voltage Curve: Maintains consistent power output throughout the entire discharge cycle, preventing the “slowdown” typically experienced with lead-acid batteries.
- High Discharge Rate: Supports a 100A maximum continuous discharge, easily handling the peak demands of high-thrust trolling motors and golf cart drivetrains.
- Scalability: Allows for parallel connection of up to four units to increase total capacity (up to 400Ah).
- Premium Chemistry: Built with LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) for maximum thermal stability and safety.
- Extended Cycle Life: Rated for 3,000–5,000 full charge/discharge cycles at 100% depth of discharge.
- Tier-1 Components: Manufactured using UL 1642 certified cells and a high-grade integrated Battery Management System (BMS).
- Long-Term Reliability: Backed by a 10-year warranty.
- Significant Weight Reduction: Weighs approximately 72.8 lbs, replacing lead-acid setups that weigh between 200–350+ lbs.
- Maintenance-Free: No water topping, no equalization cycles, and no need for trickle chargers during storage.
- Low Self-Discharge: Loses only 2–3% of charge per month, making it ideal for seasonal storage (fishing, golf, or RV use).
- Rugged Hardware: Includes M8 terminal hardware for secure, high-conductivity connections.

One 36V Lithium Battery vs. Three 12V Lead-Acid Batteries
Most 36V marine and golf cart systems have historically run on three 12V batteries wired in series. Upgrading to a single 36V lithium unit changes the system fundamentally — not just the chemistry.
| CLI100-36 (36V LiFePO4) | 3× 12V AGM Lead-Acid | |
|---|---|---|
| Weight | ~72.8 lbs (33 kg) | 200–350+ lbs depending on AGM configuration |
| Usable Capacity | 100Ah (100% DoD) | Varies by configuration — degrades significantly over time |
| Cycle Life | 3,000–5,000 cycles | 300–500 cycles |
| Wiring | Single unit — simple | 3 batteries in series |
| Maintenance | None required | Terminal cleaning, equalization charges |
| Voltage Under Load | Flat curve — consistent power | Drops progressively |
| Lifespan | 10+ years | 3–5 years |
| Long-Term Cost | Lower (fewer replacements) | Higher (frequent replacement) |
The weight advantage is especially significant for marine applications. Even at 72.8 lbs, the CLI100-36 is a fraction of the weight of a comparable lead-acid bank — weight that previously sat in the bow or stern affecting trim, fuel efficiency, and overall handling.
