0 gofishingtom Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 You need to have seperate power source for your depth finder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Deitz Dittrich Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 as go fish says.. if you dont run a seperate power cord you will have some very bad interfirence problems with your t-motor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 gofishingtom Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 no it wont come from the trolling motor..has to be seperate..you trolling motor im guessing will be 24v and your graph need to run off of 12v Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Deitz Dittrich Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 yes, seperate supply of power, even if your t-mot is 12 volt, its just not a good idea.. .most people run their eletronics off the starter battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
