Location: Bowling Green, KY | I've been out of the boat scene for a while, so I was wondering if the new 24V
trolling motors are wired 24V all the time or do they still use a 12/24V selector
switch? How many leads do they have? My last trolling motor was a 12/24V
evinrude and they, unfortunately, have went the way of the dinosaurs. Also what
do you guys think of the Minn Kota Edge series motors? Thanks. |

| Hi Roger,
Mr. Watters is correct about the 24volt being 24volts all the time. No switch need you set up with two batteries and a jumper cable that runs from the "+" on battery number one to the "-" post on battery number 2. Use a heavy gauge wire for the jumper 2 or 4 gauge wire. Than all you need to do is connect the postive lead for the trolling motor to the + on battery number 2 and the negative lead to the "-" on battery number one. You'll good to go my friend.
good luck
Dave |
