Frequently Asked Questions
Interstate Batteries Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What types of Interstate batteries are available for marine use?
Interstate offers marine starting batteries, deep cycle batteries, and dual-purpose batteries designed for boats. These options cover engine starting, trolling motors, and powering onboard electronics.
Q. What is the difference between starting and deep cycle marine batteries?
Starting batteries provide a quick burst of power to start your engine, while deep cycle batteries deliver steady power over time for electronics like fish finders, trolling motors, lighting, and house systems.
Q. How do I choose the right Interstate battery for my boat?
Choose based on your setup: use a starting battery for engine ignition, a deep cycle battery for accessories and trolling motors, and match the group size, voltage, and amp hour rating to your boat’s power requirements.
Q. What group size marine battery do I need?
Group size refers to the battery’s physical dimensions and terminal layout. Common marine sizes include Group 24, 27, 31, and GC2. Always match your existing battery size or check your boat’s battery tray and specifications.
Q. Are Interstate batteries good for Canadian marine conditions?
Yes, Interstate batteries are designed to perform in a wide range of conditions, including colder Canadian climates. They provide reliable starting power and consistent performance for boating in coastal and inland waters.
Q. How long do Interstate marine batteries last?
Battery lifespan depends on usage, charging habits, and maintenance. With proper care, Interstate marine batteries can last several seasons of reliable use in both recreational and commercial applications.
Q. Can I use an Interstate deep cycle battery for a trolling motor?
Yes, Interstate deep cycle batteries are ideal for trolling motors. They are designed to deliver steady power over long periods, making them perfect for extended time on the water.
Q. Do you carry 6V and 12V Interstate batteries?
Yes, Interstate batteries are available in multiple voltage options including 6V and 12V. 6V batteries are often used in series for larger deep cycle banks, while 12V batteries are common for starting and smaller systems.
Q. Are Interstate batteries suitable for RV and solar applications?

Safety and Peace of Mind
Awesome product very simple to install. A bit of wire cutting and splicing. Pretty much plug and play. Can’t put a price on safety of your family or protecting the value of your boat. Most insurance companies will also give you a discount if you use this product. This product is well worth the investment and peace of mind.
What a great solution for holding a boat offshore and being able to pull in

Octopus hooks
I use octopus hooks, tied in tandem, for my hootchies, trolling for Kokanee. They are strong and sharp. Thank you for the great pricing on these hooks.

Harbour Chandler service was great
Harbour Chandler service was great, the Victron MK3 worked exactly as advertised, so all good. The question remains as to why I had to buy a programming interface to set the batteries to LiFePO4 instead of allowing the setting in Victron Connect iOS in the first place.
I couldn't keep the Ling cod off
