Mount and battery for fish finder

Might also want to consider the contrast in the weight of Lithium-ion batteries:

18AH Dakota................6.4lbs........$179/208 W/Charger

15AH Bioenno Power......4.3lbs ....$150/169 W/charger

10AH Nocqua................1.4lb........$99/130 W/charger

17.5 AH FPV Power............2.02lbs.........$229 W/Charger

It bugs me that FPV Power costs $55 less if I could buy off the Australian websites. I have also heard good things about Bionno Power custumer service replacing batteries.

I have been using 2 cut-up foam floaties from the dollar store. Once cut to shape to wedge between the supports under the chair, I used a couple of screws to hold the layers of foam together. Has worked well for the PA and Outback for the last 2 years, both with lithium and lead batteries without any issues. Always use dielectric grease on all connnections for protection and longevity.

I use a DeWalt 12V drill battery I had. Put it in a waterproof plastic case and drilled 2 holes for stainless screws through the end and sealed with rubber washers to connect the power leads. Seems to work all day, and this is an older battery on a Stryker 5. Use the DeWalt battery charger.
