Power source for electric reels
Submitted by Alan James on Sat, 2011-08-13 19:16
With more people using electric reels these days I'm interested how most provide power to the reels. What do you do?

2nd batt
I use the boats second battery ,with the amount of moving needed for drifts and the acctual cranking time on the electric reel you wont even notice the drop in power ...Sounder and stereo probably draw more !!!

I just looked up the specs for a daiwa seaborg up to 30a at max power 10 at stall thats pretty big draw a couple of those would smash a battery !
