Hi,
I need for my fishfinder a 20-24Ah LiFePo4 rated as IP65 or higher, do you have any suggestion about the brand?
Do you trust any seller/brand from Aliexpress?

thanks

Hi,

Hi, what current does it draw? Do you have size and weight requirements?

In general if you buy a cheap Aliexpress 100ah battery it should have more than 25ah, but the voltage will sag under any useful load. How your fish-finder draws under 100W you may actually be OK.

Do you trust any seller/brand from Aliexpress?

No, not in battery/solar space. Where are you located? In some places like Europe Aliexpress has free returns. If the item is under 30kg you can often return it if you can show within a 60s video there is something wrong with it.

If you want peace of mind and a warranty buy locally. If you want to save as much money as possible with possibility of having to mess with the battery to prove its bad aliexpress is the way to go.

the fishfinder it's consuming around 50W (so 50W/12V amps).
I see Victron Energy has 20Ah IP43 rated LFP battery, I already have 40Ah Liontron IP65, looking for smaller battery (IP65+) but bigger than 12Ah
