I have a 95 Pro V and am converting from a 12 volt minn kota to a 24 volt minn kota. I understand the connection between battery one and battery two but am confused by the wires lund has provided. From the front bow of the boat, I have two main wires in two separate conduits. In one conduit, I have the traditional red and black and in the other conduit, I have a black with a blue stripe and an orange. So, which set of wires do I use to hook up the system or does it matter? There are also a few thinner gauge wires present but I think these are for the battery charge indicator. I prefer to use the battery charge indicator from MinnKota. Thanks for you advice.
Don't take me wrong, I'm not anti-technology. Battery powdered items will always have their place. I'm mean you don't want your girl friend or wife in the bedroom playing for their gas powered adult toys!! That would be a bit loud and smokey!
That’s right. My 84 year old dad loves his electric chain saw. Light weight and quiet. Besides, at his age he’s not cutting a bunch. Where as myself I want something with more power and heavier duty. Look at how many people have switched back to gasoline cars after running one in winter if you travel a lot.
As long as my strike master works I’ll keep using gas. Maybe my next will be electric, but who knows, you can find used gas ones pretty reasonable as others buy electric.
