nroadrunner Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Hey Guys and Gals I am trying to locate a battery box. I have been borrowing my neighbours time to get my own, trouble is i can not locate one. The one I am looking for has terminals on the outside with wingnuts so I do not have to open the battery box to hook up my trolling motor. I have tried a couple marinas locally with no luck so any help is appreciated. I am located in Baysville would drive to barrie or north bay if I had to or purchase online. Thanks Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nroadrunner Posted July 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Yes sir exactly like that one. And that is why I posted it here I knew someone would know where to look. I feel like an idiot as my motor is minkota and I never thought to check their site. Luckily for me its not the first time and probably won't be the last.

mercman Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 (edited) Got mine at Sail.64bucks. Has 2 12volt outlets(handy) and a battery charge tester integrated, and 2 overload protectors, resetable. Edited July 26, 2011 by mercman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nroadrunner Posted July 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 206 yes there are walmarts everywhere but unfortunately they do not all carry the same stock and the 2 near me do not have any. Thanks for the help mercman, I have sent an email to Tromblys Tackle box which is about 50 min from me to see if they have any as they are a minkota dealer.

skeeter Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 Wow, I didnt realize they were that expensive. I found one sitting beside the dumpster in march. Tested it and it works perfectly. It is now sitting in my boat with my battery in it, guess I better lock it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skeeter Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 Seriously, I did. It has 2 outlets on the front that I cant figure out what they are for. They are the same as headphone cord plugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skeeter Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 It has a fuse built in , but these are two headphone jacks, and the 2 jacks were still in the box, ready to hook something up to them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adolson Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 It has a fuse built in , but these are two headphone jacks, and the 2 jacks were still in the box, ready to hook something up to them? Did you try plugging in some headphones? Maybe there's a secret message recorded inside the box! Perhaps a clue as to why it was thrown away? Maybe the box is cursed! You will never know until you plug in some phones and giver a listen! --- I never even considered a box for my battery before. Is there any reason I *should* have one? I only use my battery for my trolling motor, which has a battery gauge built right in, which seems like the best feature on a box. And a handle, of course, which my battery already has.

It prevents accidentally dropping something metalic between the terminals.or accidental spillage of acid in your boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
