I neesd to replace my old bow mount trolling motor and have been looking around the internet for some deals. My biggest question is what is the difference between a 12 volt and 24 volt machine? Does it mean it takes twice the juice to run it(so I would need 2 batteries), or is 2X more powerful, etc? Thanks in advance for any answers.
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.
