My thought’s are if cost isn’t an issue and all things being equal then a 10ah will provide one amp for 10hrs vs the 7.5 giving you 1 amp for 7.5 hrs. If it was me I’d go with the 10ah

Did I mention size does matter?:-) If there is not much difference in cost, I'd certainly get the 10AH...

Get all the battery you can afford, you will never regret the extra run time.

2x: "Get all the battery you can afford, you will never regret the extra run time."

10Ah in lithium (LiFePo4) is the wiser choice for your sonar -- taking cost out of the equation. It's also benefits by being lighter for ice fishing use.

But, "Humminbird"?

If you are getting the Dakota 10, which is on sale right now make sure you fill out or submit the warranty for it ..


I have had problems with their chargers 2 x now

I use my ion- x auger battery for ice fishing. Buy the adapter that slips on top.
