Thread: changing from 12volt to 24 volt

Another little trick that eliminated interference for me when getting power straight off the cranking battery... Make sure you have plenty wire, then add some more as it will get shorter with this method. Take your pos and neg wire(same length) and put one end of each in a vise. Chuck the other ends in a drill. With the wire stretched out at full length, turn your drill on and twist it until you get about a couple turn per inch. Easier to run too. Eliminated the interference I had..

here is what i did. i put two batteries in my front compartment and plenty of room to spare for charger, tackle, crank boxes, etc. this short distance to my trolling motor allowed me to use heavier gauge wire with no problem running it. right now i have a 12v power drive v2 and utilize both batteries and should i find a absolute steal on a 24v terrova i can change in a matter of minutes to accomodate it... i still have two batteries in the back, one for cranking, one for everything else. if you have the room this is, IMO, the way to go....good luck
