o Gatorgringo made the following schematic: Note that this a 2 bank charger setup with no charger wiring for the starting battery.

o Hobo replies "I drew up this simplified drawing of how you can wire your vessel to allow you to use one of your trolling motor batteries as an alternant general service battery."

system in their kitchen. They need 6 spotlights and three pendants over an island. It will be a 15-foot

Not recommended, you can burn a trolling motor up like this from over voltage. You need a power converter for the appropriate wattage, that converts AC to 12 V DC power. Email me for more info.

Yes, people do it all the time -both bow mount, and stern using different brands of trolling motors and mounting styles.

o if you are a fly fisher, buy the quick release mount. You can then take motor off and have a clean snag free surface. If you fly fish and use the TM at same time, then get a basket for catching the fly line. o I opted for a starboard mount as my Push Pole was already on the starboard side and I didn't want to clutter up both sides of the bow. As a right-hander, and a newbie fly fisherman, I wanted to keep the port side uncluttered, especially when I use a stripping basket.

To answer a question with another question, why? Why keep the heavy trolling motor and the one or two heavy batteries in the boat when the fan will do everything the trolling motor will do. If the fan will not do it, then why did you get such a small HP engine? I can see if the boat is going to be using for daytime fishing (rod & reel) but a true bowfishing rig would have no need for one after the fan was added.

You can store the battery on the floor of the motormount and transom boats. For the Paddleski, there is a motormount board that the battery sits on the side.

Trolling is acting or being a Troll. A Troll is someone that lives under a bridge that purposely fishes and attacks unsuspecting gullibly goats. A troll baits or antagonizes gullibly people to responded to their remarks, hence why it's called Fishing. The Trolls remarks often generate a Flame war to purposely tie up the system in use. Most Trolls crave flame because in their pathetic life no one talks to them. So they feel that this is a service for talking and being a complete jackass.

volt lights work on 24 volt circuits (military vehicles like the Hummer, Abrams tanks, Fox recons, Cougars, etc.) Sometimes, heavy equipment has 24 volts circuits as well. I am interested in one of your products. The GL-3151 (135) is what we are interested in. This will be mounted on a snowmobile trail groomer which is obviously going to be in extreme cold temps. 20 below zero is not uncommon for us and I just want to be sure that this product will work for us.

Yes. Safety. They develop more power per ? than mains voltage devices and they are credited with a higher usage percentage.

We actually test all of the mods on the CD and we have had too many failures with 24 volts to recommend it. It's true that it can be very fun, but the fun comes at the expense of burned up motors and broken gearboxes. series motors, as a general rule, will tolerate 24 volts better than 550 sized motors, but both will last much longer on 18 volts than they will on 24 volts.

Many people wonder if they can, for instance, add another 12V battery to their 24 V system and get a 36 volt system with greater power and speed. This is not actually as crazy as it sounds, though keep in mind that the motor controller will need to be changed or altered for the higher voltage, and the battery charger will also need to be changed.

This is a term used to indicate that the post is designed purely to irritate and annoy other Forum members with the intention of starting an argument. We don't like trolling on SF; it can stir up bad feelings and also wastes server space and bandwidth. If you come across a thread or post that you consider to be a troll, user the 'Report this post' link.

o I use a MinnKota RT55 AP/CP on my HPX-T. It's a 12 volt motor, so only one battery is necessary. If I used the motor all day in heavy currents, it's possible that a 24 volt motor would be better. There are lots of opinions on the relative advantages of a tiller control motor versus the Auto Pilot/Co-Pilot. These can all be boiled down to "Keep it Simple" vs. "Great features". o I have the MinnKota 55 compact mount.

o The Power Winch plug. It can be bought from Mike at Master Repair. He quit using the Marinco plugs. o Be very careful with those trolling motor plugs. I recently had mine catch fire while on the water. I now have a new item on my check list. "Read instructions on how to operate the fire extinguisher before every trip". I had minor damage to the boat around the anchor locker.

Yes you can. The Creek Company recommends using electric trolling motors only! We have found that a motor with 36 pounds of thrust works great with all of our boats. Cargo Decks are not for standing and fishing off of! For the ODC Sport, Super Sport and 816 models, you will need the motor mount/anchor drop system #856, $79.99. All other boats have the system standard on the rear decks. Not for use with the ODC Jetpack.

Yes. RustStop? RS2000 comes in a standard 12 volt system for cars, a 24 volt for trucks, busses etc., as well as a 6 volt units for vintage cars and motorcycles.
