LifePO4 batteries, especially new ones can often be out of balance when new or when run in parallel. This is caused by small voltage differences between the two batteries. It's important to get these batteries to equalize, if not one battery will take over and one might remain in standby mode. There are a few simple tricks you can try to get the voltage to equalize between the two LifePO4 batteries that will allow them to sync up and discharge at equal rates while running your trolling motor. In this video, we go over the simple 3 tricks to help you resolve this issue.
