That is a great idea. Also if you do want wires, let us know how many amps it draws and we can tell you the wire gauge needed.

She got me the wet suit a few years ago so this was inevitable. Here's my issue(s). It comes with about 6' of power cord, which will make it difficult to get it running on deck due to the distance to the house batteries under the settee. My solution is to get a 16' 6 gauge jumper, then modify one end so that it can be securely bolted to the existing cable ends. It seems like it should work. I checked and unloaded here is virtually no voltage drop. That said, I am unsure about how it will behave under load and whether there would be a significant amperage hit as well. Lest issue is when I am docked can I use a battery that is being charged in order to maintain voltage while on a extended dive. The charger I have can e used to start a car. So, I figure it can handle it. Just doing a bit of a sanity check here. There a picture, if any wants to look at this stuff...(let me know of the link doesn't work. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IT_6H4jyfz8v4opckWo3-7UlXelpMcwG/view Tom B .¤º°`°º¤,¸¸,¤º°`°º¤¤º°`°º¤,¸¸,¤º°`°º¤.
