Hobie Bait Tank Problem - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I would go with the advice given above since they have owned Hobie's for quite awhile but...

I had the same problem about a month ago. The manual for Hobie is incorrect or I'm reading it incorrectly. For the battery on the tank to be fully charged it needs to start blinking. When it's blinking then it is fully charged and is now in "trickle mode." The manual does not read like this. The second simple solution is to make sure the intake tube is pointing in the right direction when it goes through the scupper hole. It can twist about a 1/4 inch either way sometimes.
