Hey all just chasing some advice concerning amp draw
I have a 44lb bow mount watersnake on a 3.5 mtr tinny and am a bit confused about what battery to get?
On the jarvis website it says the motor has 40amp draw, I spoke to a really helpfull guy at bias virginia who told me I need 100amp deep cycle minimum which arn't cheap then I was informed I needed a 10amp charger which isn't cheap either
So...
1 - Could I run the motor for a 3hr on average session with a car battery?
2 - How long would the battery last roughly?
3 - Can it damage the watersnake?
Keeping in mind the leccy is just for little trolls and hitting snags , Have outboard for getting out there and back.
PS. will get the charger magnito doowacker installed at 10hr service will this contribute?
Any feedback would be very helpfull and cheers in advance :ta:
