I have a 1996 Northwoods Pro Tourny 192 I/O. Boat came with a standard graph, swapped it out with a Humminbird 2 years ago. The graph pulls a lot of power from the batteries, if fishing a spot for hours without using the engine, the graph will cut out when I go to start the engine.

I also fish bass tournaments. When the battery gets low throughout the day, the livewell will cut out. Not good! Finally adding another Humminbird to the boat, adding to the bow. I'm looking at running my graphs off of a separate battery, with a cable to the main battery so it can still charge off that battery but won't drain it. Anybody do this before?
