    Which Circuit Breaker?
    I have two 40 amp in the battery compartment of my 86 Ranger, and a MinnKota 60 amp on the positive terminal in my 15 ft Alumacraft....I hope this is helpful

    Larry....Get the MK circuit breaker.....the paperwork that comes with your TM shows which one they reccomend and how to install etc. Do not cheap out on this because not only is your expensive TM in jepardy but your boat is also.

    If there is a positive lead to any of my batteries, they have a breaker on them. Even my radio.

    The reason the Minkota type is more expensive is the internal contacts are designed to carry more curren/voltage than the smaller auto reset type from automotive store or Walmart. Just like using 6 gauge wire verses 10 gauge . They will work but how well. Those motors cost way to much to cheap out on a breaker.
