Sport Utility Vehicle Upgrade for Fishermen 03 13 2019
There ought to be a Second Battery Tray on a Sport Utility Vehicle. So that you can take the BATTERY you use for your Electric Trolling Motor out of your boat and Charge it up on the way home with your Sport Utility Vehicle's Alternator!
The sooner you recharge a battery the better it is for the battery. Now it might not charge it up all the way but at least it is a start.
The same could be accomplished via a cable back to the battery from the car. But that would need to be extremely fault tolerant in order to prevent stalls on the highway from a bad connection. A mechanical switch might facilitate it?
And the system could be put in divert mode whereby power to things like the radio and accessories on the car were minimized while it is in charge mode.
Assuming the alternator has enough power to do this.
