Thread: Batteries

How do u fish most often? Single Pole.

Under sized tm for your boat? 44 lb for 16 ft crappie bass tracker. Thinking about moving up to larger trolling motor motor though. I had to keep it on high speed just to keep from going backwards in the wind last week.

Good charger? Brand new charger.

Always recharge as soon as u get home? Yes.

Do u check water in batteries often? Yes

Always use distiller water and never tap? Haven't had to add water but didn't know this made a difference. Will keep that in mind going forward.

What size wire is in your boat? See pic. Maybe this is the problem??

Undersized batteries? Not the problem.

I'm thinking the wiring set up might be the issue and maybe a larger trolling motor needed. Thanks for the help.
