trolling to fast

does any know if I can put a rheostat on my minn kota edge 70 #

I know there was a thread about this recently, but I don't remember which forum it was in. I know they found something maybe on e bay.

Minnkota used to make an add on infinite adjustment rheostat but they discontinued it. You can sometimes find them on ebay or amazon. Minnkota's was digital so it did not heat up like a straight resistance rheostat will. I had one of the resistance types on a boat and it got so hot you could not touch it. I had to use sparingly to avoid meleting the switch.

it's called a "Maximizer" and sometimes you can find them on E-Bay or even BBC.

Find Jone's trolling motor on here in the sponsors section. Call Jack Jones and he may have a fix for you.

Thanks for the help
