[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000]There are actually lots of sources for 24V batteries found on the Net. However, almost all are for electric bikes, wheelchairs, etc., and none are suitable for the use you intend. You need way more current capability than what they offer and the ONLY way you are going to get that is with two 12V Marine batteries. I would recommend 2 of the Cabela's brand AGMs as the best deal going right now. Two Gp 24s give you a Reserve Capacity (RC) of 240 ah and two Gp 30s give you an RC of 380 ah. You will not find a 24v battery that comes anywhere close to those figures for RC. And you will absolutely need that RC if you want that electric motor to run for more than an hour or two.[/#800000][/font]
