Charge Fast. Go Far.

RELiON Batteries Meet ProMariner ProSport Efficiency

When you’re out on the water or exploring the open road, the last thing you want is to be tethered to a dock or campsite, waiting for your batteries to charge. With RELiON Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries paired with the ProMariner ProSport HD charger, you can charge faster, stay powered longer, and go farther on every adventure. This dynamic duo is revolutionizing energy solutions for marine and RV enthusiasts by combining cutting-edge lithium technology with smart, efficient charging. Let’s dive into why this pairing is your ticket to worry-free power and extended journeys.

The Power of Fast Charging with RELiON Lithium Batteries

Unlike traditional lead-acid batteries, RELiON LiFePO4 batteries are designed for speed and efficiency. Thanks to their flat voltage curve, they can charge up to four times faster, achieving a full charge in as little as 2.5 hours with the right charger. This means less downtime and more time enjoying your boat or RV. Whether you’re powering navigation systems, trolling motors, or onboard appliances, RELiON batteries deliver consistent power throughout their discharge cycle, ensuring your equipment runs smoothly even under heavy loads.

What makes RELiON batteries stand out? Their built-in Battery Management System (BMS) protects against overcharging, overheating, and short-circuiting, ensuring safety and longevity. Plus, they’re up to 76% lighter than lead-acid batteries, as demonstrated by Sub Sea Systems’ SolarCats, which boosted efficiency and customer satisfaction by switching to RELiON. Lighter batteries mean better fuel economy and more space for gear, letting you go farther without the extra weight.

ProMariner ProSport HD: The Perfect Charging Partner

To unlock the full potential of RELiON batteries, you need a charger that’s up to the task. Enter the ProMariner ProSport HD, a heavy-duty, waterproof charger designed for marine environments. With lithium-specific charging profiles, the ProSport HD delivers precise, multi-stage charging tailored to LiFePO4 batteries. Its microprocessor-controlled technology ensures optimal performance, charging 12V, 24V, or 36V systems in just 8-10 hours, depending on the model.

The ProSport HD’s Distributed-On-Demand technology is a game-changer. It senses which battery needs the most charge and allocates 100% of the available amps accordingly, ensuring faster, balanced charging across multiple batteries. For example, the ProSport HD 20 Plus can charge three 12V batteries simultaneously, prioritizing your trolling motor or house batteries once the starting battery is full. This efficiency minimizes charging time, so you’re back on the water or road sooner.

Why This Combo Means Longer Adventures

The synergy between RELiON batteries and the ProSport HD charger doesn’t just stop at fast charging—it translates to extended runtime and reliability. RELiON batteries offer deeper discharges (up to 80% depth of discharge without damage) compared to lead-acid batteries, which are typically limited to 50%. This means you can use more of your battery’s capacity, keeping your boat or RV powered for longer trips.

For instance, Sub Sea Systems reported a 25% increase in runtime for their SolarCats after switching to RELiON batteries, allowing longer excursions and higher revenue from rentals. The ProSport HD complements this by maintaining batteries in peak condition with its Energy Saver Mode, which monitors and auto-maintains batteries during storage, reducing power costs and extending lifespan. The charger’s monthly reconditioning cycle further ensures your batteries stay ready for action, even after months in storage.

Real-World Benefits for Boaters and RVers

Imagine this: You’re on a multi-day fishing trip, relying on your trolling motor and electronics. With RELiON batteries, you can run your equipment longer without worrying about power loss. When it’s time to recharge, the ProSport HD’s fast, efficient charging gets you back on the water overnight. Its waterproof, shock-resistant design (IP67-rated for 30-minute submersion) means it thrives in harsh marine conditions, whether mounted on a bass boat or a pontoon.

For RVers, the lightweight RELiON batteries free up payload for other essentials, while the ProSport HD’s compact design fits neatly into tight spaces. The charger’s ability to handle LiFePO4, AGM, and flooded batteries also makes it versatile for mixed battery setups, ensuring you’re covered as you upgrade to lithium.

Tips for Maximizing Your Setup

To get the most out of your RELiON and ProSport HD combo, follow these best practices:

  • Use Lithium-Specific Settings: Ensure your ProSport HD is set to the LiFePO4 charging profile to optimize voltage and prevent BMS protection mode. Avoid lead-acid chargers with higher voltage limits that could trigger faults.
  • Charge Above Freezing: RELiON batteries charge safely between -4°F and 131°F, but for best results, charge above 32°F. For cold climates, consider RELiON’s LT Series batteries designed for sub-freezing conditions.
  • Monitor State of Charge (SoC): Traditional voltage-based monitors don’t work well with lithium batteries. Use an SoC monitor for accurate tracking of your battery’s capacity like the Mastervolt BattMan monitors.
  • Store Smart: For short-term storage (3-6 months), leave RELiON batteries at 50% charge. For long-term storage, cycle them every 6-12 months to maintain health. The ProSport HD’s Storage Recondition mode simplifies this process
