hovermn Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Hey guys, It's about that time again. No, not for hard water unfortunately, but to charge your portable electronics batteries. Your flasher, camera and auger batteries will greatly appreciate a little juice, and keep sulfite from building on the battery plates. T-minus 5 months and counting!

MJ1657 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Good call. Its amazing how much longer batteries last if they are kept charged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finlander Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I mark on my calendar when I charge my batteries! Once a month wether it needs it or not, they get put on the smart-charger for at least 2-4 hours even if the fully charged green light is on! I check the voltage with a volt meter to see how many volts it's holding before charging to determine how long to charge. Git-R-done!

Stick in Mud Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Ah, thanks for the reminder. I've been using the flasher for openwater fishing this year, so that one's fine....but the camera and the auger (we have an electric one) are both in need, I'm sure!

hovermn Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 I'm amazed every year at my Ice Gator batteries. Every summer, I put them on the charger a couple of times, and not one time has it charged for over a minute or two before the light turns green. They're just vex batteries in the pack, but they sure hold their charge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
