Structure scan HDS 7

[Iceman]

Setting this up on a customer's PA14.......HDS 7 is above my pay grade

I would definitely recommend a 10ah plus lithium or 12ah if using an acid battery as I have killed my 7ah lion twice last weekend using the elite 7ti with sidescan and sonar logging running.

I'm too busy to do it but you'd think someone would have designed a generator or battery charger powered by the Hobie pedal system...

If money is no object ( forgive me for thread jacking and going off topic ) . I found this battery, possibly the lightest battery in world . Manufacturer is claiming it can handle a thousand discharges unlike non deep cycle batteries . This battery weighs 2.2 lbs almost 1/2 the weight of my other Lifepo battery coming in at 4.2 . They have other batteries as well , which will go up in weight and price accordingly . I purchased it from batterymart.com .

18 amp equalvilant . Battery can be used in any position vertical or laying down.

Is about the same weight of a Lifepo battery I'm using for my bait tank . It is a 6vt 12 amp coming in at just over 2 lbs. it will run a tsunami 500 all day , maybe all night too. Pm if more info is wanted . Sorry for busting up thread . Blame Sammy . .

He has every other possible feature for PA. Probably even has a motor and down riggers for trolling . Maybe that's why I have not seen him . . He's leaving me in his wake .
