Frequently Asked Questions What's the advantage of 36V over 24V for marine applications? 36V systems further reduce current draw—a 3000W inverter draws 85A at 36V versus 130A at 24V, allowing even smaller cables and less voltage drop. This is particularly advantageous for electric propulsion where efficiency gains translate directly to extended range. Many modern electric trolling motors and pod drives are optimized for 36V operation, delivering better thrust efficiency and longer runtime than lower-voltage equivalents. Can I use this battery with my 36V Minn Kota trolling motor? Yes, this battery is specifically suited for 36V trolling motors from Minn Kota, MotorGuide, and other manufacturers. The 100A discharge capability handles the high current draws of electric propulsion, while the stable lithium voltage maintains consistent thrust throughout the discharge cycle unlike lead-acid voltage sag. Verify your trolling motor's maximum current draw is within 100A continuous rating. How does 3840Wh compare to traditional lead-acid capacity? An equivalent lead-acid system providing comparable usable capacity would require three 12V 200Ah batteries wired in series (36V), weighing 80–120kg total versus this single 27kg lithium battery. Lead-acid batteries also suffer voltage sag under load and should only be discharged to 50%, meaning you'd need 200Ah lead-acid to match 100Ah lithium's usable capacity. The lithium advantage is dramatic for 36V systems. Can I charge this with solar panels? Yes, using a 36V-compatible MPPT solar charge controller rated for the 42.6V–43.8V charging voltage and up to 100A output (for full-rate charging). Most marine solar installations use 12V or 24V panels in series to achieve the required voltage. Consult a marine solar specialist for proper panel configuration and controller selection for 36V systems. Why can't this battery be connected in series? The BMS and construction are designed for single-unit operation or parallel configuration only (up to 4 units). Series connection would create 72V+ systems requiring different BMS coordination and safety considerations. For higher voltages, Baintech offers dedicated high-voltage marine batteries. The 4-unit parallel capability (400Ah at 36V = 15,360Wh) provides massive capacity without series complexity.Legendary Products & Support From Authorized Dealers When you choose Frankies BrandBeast, you're choosing quality and performance.

Baintech SF50634 battery master switch provides 3-pole electrical isolation for marine, 4WD and caravan battery systems This contour-mounted switch disconnects positive, negative and auxiliary circuits simultaneously, delivering complete system isolation during storage, maintenance or emergency shutdown scenarios. The 3-pole configuration suits dual battery installations where both starter and auxiliary batteries require simultaneous disconnection, along with marine applications where bilge pumps or emergency circuits need isolation control separate from primary systems. Designed for Australian marine and off-road environments where battery drain during storage periods shortens battery lifespan and creates starting failures. The master switch eliminates parasitic draw from alarm systems, stereos, GPS units and other accessories that slowly discharge batteries over weeks or months of storage. Contour mounting style integrates flush with console or bulkhead surfaces for clean installation without protruding handles that snag clothing or create injury hazards in confined spaces. Key Specifications Pole configuration: 3-pole (triple circuit isolation) Mounting style: Contour mount (flush installation) Application: Battery isolation and master disconnect Construction: Marine-grade materials (corrosion-resistant) Circuit capacity: Not specified Voltage rating: Not specified (likely 12V/24V marine systems) Features & Benefits 3-Pole Circuit Control: Isolates three separate circuits simultaneously, supporting dual battery systems with auxiliary circuit isolation or marine installations with emergency circuit separation. Provides more comprehensive shutdown control than single-pole switches that disconnect positive only. Contour Flush Mounting: Integrates flush with console, bulkhead or panel surfaces without protruding handles. Eliminates snag hazards in cockpits, vehicle cabins and tight passages where traditional rotary switch handles create injury risks and obstruct movement. Complete System Isolation: Disconnects all circuits to eliminate parasitic battery drain during storage periods. Prevents dead batteries from alarm systems, clock memories, ECU standby circuits and other accessories that slowly discharge batteries over weeks of non-use. Marine-Grade Construction: Corrosion-resistant materials withstand salt spray, bilge water exposure and coastal humidity that destroys standard automotive switches. Maintains reliable switching operation across seasons of marine or coastal vehicle use. Emergency Shutdown Capability: Provides rapid, complete electrical system isolation during emergencies including electrical fires, water ingress or collision scenarios. Single switch operation disconnects all circuits faster than individual component shutdown procedures. Dual Battery System Integration: Three poles support starter battery positive/negative isolation plus auxiliary battery circuit control in dual battery installations. Allows selective system shutdown configurations in complex electrical architectures. Technical Specs Model: SF50634 Pole configuration: 3-pole Mounting type: Contour mount (flush installation) Switch type: Battery master switch/isolator Compatible With / Goes Well With Marine electrical systems (single and dual battery configurations) 4WD dual battery systems requiring complete isolation Caravan and motorhome battery banks Boat battery systems with emergency circuit separation Marine engine rooms and helm console installations Vehicle storage and maintenance electrical control Emergency shutdown systems Parasitic draw elimination in stored vehicles and vessels Caution: Verify current rating, voltage compatibility and mounting dimensions before purchase. Insufficient current rating can cause switch failure and fire hazards. Ensure circuits controlled by this switch don't include safety-critical systems requiring continuous power (automatic bilge pumps, fire suppression). Frequently Asked Questions What does 3-pole mean for battery switching? Three-pole switches control three separate circuits simultaneously. In dual battery systems, this typically isolates starter positive, starter negative and auxiliary circuits with one switch operation. This provides more comprehensive control than 2-pole switches that may leave ground connections active. What is contour mounting? Contour mounting installs flush with panel surfaces without protruding handles. The switch mechanism sits behind the panel with only the operating control visible from the front, creating clean appearance and eliminating snag hazards compared to traditional rotary battery switches. Can this handle high-current starter motor loads? Current ratings are not specified. Battery master switches typically handle continuous accessory loads but may not be rated for sustained starter motor cranking current (200-400A). Verify current specifications match your application before purchase, especially for high-load circuits. Does this replace the battery isolator in dual battery systems? No, battery isolators manage charging between multiple batteries while running. Master switches provide manual ON/OFF control for storage, maintenance and emergencies. Both components serve different functions in dual battery systems. Can I leave this in the OFF position during boat storage? Yes, that's the primary function. The OFF position isolates all circuits to eliminate parasitic battery drain during storage periods, preventing dead batteries when returning to the vessel after weeks or months.Legendary Products & Support From Authorized Dealers When you choose Frankies BrandBeast, you're choosing quality and performance.
