[QUOTE="Riverdog, post: 465685, member: 16557"] On mine, I have an 8 ga 5ft length (duplex,marine) going from the battery to the marine fuse box. Then FF connected to that. Battery is connected separately with factory cable. I watched my Mercury Smart Craft tach gauge while starting and it went from 12.6 v to 9-8v then back up to 13-14v. Since my current battery is getting old, I'm going to replace it. Still cranks fast though. I'll start there, then redo connectors next. A third battery to worry about is too much, I'll just use the standby mode if a new battery and new connections fail. Maybe a software update is coming, my previous 597 humminbird didn't have the same problem. Like posted before, if I put the unit in standby mode I can bring it back up after starting. Just a few less buttons to press and goes back to the same window. Don't mean to hijack your thread, just figured we're having the same problem. [/QUOTE]
