[QUOTE="Zum, post: 51085, member: 349"] I'm not sure sure how many amps a 46lbs.TM draws,it might be alittle more than 30 though...guessing 40amps. I know some people that put their fishfinder on a seperate battery(just a small 12V)because of interference but I know others that only use 1 battery and have no trouble at all.I don't know how many amps a FF draws but it can't be much,probably wouldn't hurt the starting battery to much.On the other hand a small battery just for the FF wouldn't cost or weigh that much and it's nice to know theres enough power to start your motor. I'm not to sure what the 60amp breaker between the batteries is for,,,,incase one shorts out?Could you explain it to me. [/QUOTE]
