[QUOTE="Zum, post: 162853, member: 349"] Do you mean 30lbs thrust TM? They use alot less amps(especially the maximizers)at lower settings then full speed. I wouldn't think it would ever draw 60 amps,suppose depends on wire size and such. I've only ever googled it and 1 amp per pound thrust is said quite often for 12volt systems and when someone knows what their trolling motor is...it's normally in the ballpark. Again not sure why your 30lber would take a bigger circuit breaker then a 40-55lbs trolling motor. I use a 50amp for a 50lbs PD. [/QUOTE]
