I have a 60 amp, 80 lb Motorguide Xi5 and I have popped the breaker every time I have run the TM on high for an extended amount of time. Curley- if I have 40-amp breakers like you it would make even more sense. (I thought they were 50 amp but they are not labeled.) It looks like 8 gauge wire to me and Steve thinks that as well. Will that safely carry 60 amps? I know guys run 36 volts in Tuffys but at what amp? I don't know much about wiring so excuse my ignorance. Plus, this is my first 24 volt system.
@mtcook- our Tuffy's have 2 circuit breakers. We don't jump the voltage at the batteries so each battery has a circuit breaker. The plug makes the 24 volts.
