Are you recharging your cranking battery after every day out?

When I first got my boat, it had one small B&W fish finder. No problems; my normal gas motor operation was enough to recharge my cranking battery every day. Then I added a second, larger B&W fish finder. Still no problems.

Now I have two color fish finders (1 med and 1 larger) and I found out (the hard way) that my usual gas motor operation on the smaller lakes I usually fish wasn't enough to fully recharge the battery every day. Each day out depleted the battery more and it wasn't being replenished, until one day...
Stranded out on the lake with a flat battery! Lucky for me, it wasn't a big lake, and I got back to the launch on the TM.

Now I recharge every night and have no probs anymore. These larger color fish finders use quite a bit of juice!
