Wrapping up the Kayak Project... Fish finder wiring Question

[Subarualmen]

Thanks for all the advice everyone. Looks the FF pulls 1.1 Amps MAX. Not sure what it averages.. Seems pretty high. I agree the 7 AMP battery does seem a little low for this in conjunction with the Livewell Pump... I purchased all the electrical components i needed to install everything. The FF is all set up in the kayak, just the power wiring needs to be done.

Hmm i didn't know that..


That would mean i'd get 4 Amp Hours out of a charge

I'll have to check and see if they have a batter this size with a higher amperage
