    Battery configuration in ranger Z520 C

    Anybody know if 3 group 24 lithium batteries will all fit on the Port side where I previously had 2 31 AGMs? I have a 2013 Ranger Z520 C.

    thanks for any responses.

    3 group 31 lithium’s on the port side was a little to tight for me on my 520c so I put one in the middle spot. You should have no problem with 3 group 24.

    Thanks gents. @Brewer, Did you install them with 3 individual battery trays or did you use one tray that fits all 3 batteries?

    I have three group 29's on the Port Side and one group 31 on starboard side. Power Pole pumps and charger are in the center section.

    Two 29's run parallel to the boat, the third is perpendicular.

    Nick, I used the single tray that holds 3 50ah ionic batteries. Fits easily on the port side

    I recently rigged up my buddies 520c with 3 Ionics 50ah in a single tray on port side, Ionics charger in the middle, 125ah for crank and electronics identical to my rig.

    How is the 520c performing with the change to lithiums? I am a little concerned about losing bow lift. I run a 25 Fury 3 with added vents.

    To continue the subject, has anyone tried the 3 battery set up on the troll side of 521c? I need to add a 5th battery for electronics.

    That’s ^ a great deal. Hasn’t been long ago a single lithium trolling battery was close to $900. Now you’re basically getting three for that price, and Bluetooth is the cherry on top.

    Correction, Actually The 36v-60 is $1061, we can do the 36v-40 for $789. Both have bluetooth and a full 10 year warranty

    Will it work with a MK charger?

    They will fit no problem. Just make sure you position them so they are not directly under the deck drain hole in the back compartment.
