- FPV-Power and BerleyPro got together and came up with a solution for storing lots of power in the rear hatch of Hobie Pro Anglers equipped with a skeg (will work in other circular hatches as well).
For wiring the FPV-Power pigtails - the brown wire is Positive + (red) and the blue wire is negative - (black)

Awesome vide again Tim. I’m definitely thinking about this set up for my HDS Live 9 this year
Good stuff. Appreciate your videos, always informational.
Always good to watch Tim, I hope this is an option in Australia.
It is...both BerleyPro and FPV-Power are Australian companies.
@@TimPercyKayakFishing Well there you go! I'm thinking that, on this basis, they will be an option for me. Many thanks, Roger.
Thanks for sharing the details Tim !
I use the same battery... pretty popular actually but I’ve been using it with lowrance finder ... lasts for the whole day no prob
Thanks very much!
Tim is the man. Fantastic.
Awsome video,thank you!
Thank you for all your hard work over the years and for sharing the information. I've learned more from your channel in Kayak mods (clean kayak mods at that) than any other channels bar none.
I'm going to be installing the new Humminbird Solix 10 on my PA 12 when it's officially launched, (something I would have never even considered trying before getting ideas and confidence from your videos.)
Any chance of you switching to humminbird? A template wouldn't hurt haha. Thanks a lot Tim
Thanks for watching and the compliments. No chance of switching to Birds... I love my Lowrance units. :)
Great video Tim,
I’m assuming that you spliced some wire to the pigtail and added a SAE connector to it.
Which allowed you to connect to the switch.
Yes, I spliced the SAE plug to the FPV-Power pigtail. I believe FPV-Power is coming out with something similar so you can plug directly into the Yak-Power system .
Really wanted to order these batteries but glad i haven't. I will be running a helix 9 mega SI with 360 imaging so if these batteries can't take the load, I'll have to figure something else out. Thanks for the videos!
Cher, these batteries easily runt the helix 9 mega SI system.
After watching this video I got some of those batteries also. But I’m no electrician. Question though? I noticed the wires were blue and brown. So the question is, between the two color wire which one in the positive? Which color did you solder to the red wire from your fish finder power cable?
Brown is positive and blue is negative. Solder the brown wire to the red wire and the blue to black.
Thanks Tim
Hi Tim, just saw your video and I’m running the same equipment you’ve mentioned the HDS9 carbon with the 3D transducer. If I use two 17.5ah batteries and the 5a regulator, there shouldn’t be any issues. Is that right? And how long do I think it would run. Thanks
The Carbon with the 3D hub is a power hog. I never really had it out for very long to test how long the batteries would last. I sold the unit a while ago, because it used so much power and I didn't use most of the features.
Tim, I'm going to use the same setup. From what I'm understanding, there was no need to use that FPV regulator after you changed Lowrance units?
The only time I needed the regulator was with the HDS Carbon and the 3D StructureScan...it was a power hog. I've only run my new Ti2 12 in demo mode so far, but no issues. I will be on the water this week at tournament to give it the full test.
Been watching for a while, got some good ideas from you Tim! 👍 'appreciated. I do have a question regards your volt meter readout on the Ti9. I have a Ti 7 with TotalScan (not Ti-2) and cannot figure out how to get my voltage to read. I just get 3 dashes (no data). It could be my Nocqua 10ah doesn't send this data, I dono. Lastly, and this is even more important to me, is there anyway to get a "remaining percentage of battery charge" through the Lowrance? That would be lovely, but I can't find how.
There is no way to tell the remaining voltage remaining, all you can display is the current voltage. It should display the voltage with your battery
I just got two of those 12v 17.5ah Batteries and the BerlyPro Batterang to install them in the 8 inch hatch of my Pro angler 14 360. Is one sufficient for the Garmin UHD 74cv with the 9inch screen? I want to use the other one for running lights. The Hobie XL livewell has its own battery so I'm covered there.
One should run the Garmin all day. The running lights shouldn't use much power. In the future you may want to look at purchasing the FPV-Power Distribution Hub...you can connect the two batteries in parallel, run them to the Distribution Hub and control all your components with the remote.
Tim so what batteries are you using
The Dakota or the battery in this video?
I'm using the FPV-Power batteries now. The Dakota is not big enough to handle my needs.
Percy, I would like to call you to discuss this setup. I have the dual17.5 batteries with a Carbon 7 and a Yak Power switch. I am trying to find a way to continue using my YP Switch but doing so would mean losing 35 Ah.
Thomas, I run the dual FPV-Power batteries (using the FPV-POWER PARALLEL PIGTAIL) into the Yak-Power module. Email me at timp4922@gmail.com
@@TimPercyKayakFishing Thanks Tim. I emailed you. Had I known about these batteries long ago, I would have gone with them instead of my lead-acid batteries and a YP Battery Box.
Hi Tim, I just purchased this setup for a new Hobie PA14. How do you charge the batteries? Do you disconnect the pigtail and charge each separately or can you charge them though the pigtail?
I charge them both at the same time through parallel pigtail.
Thanks for the quick reply. Do you use one of the included chargers?
@@robertvoelk4738 I use a NOCO genius G3500. The included charger works, but the NOCO charges at 3.5ah , which is a bit quicker than the included 2ah charger.
What actual warranty does FPV-Power provides given that they’re based out of Australia?
I am actually not that thrilled about putting lithium Ion in a yak... I know these are light but the LiFePO4 are a lot safer.
1 year warranty
I’m try to buy some FPV 17.5 AH batteries. Where can I buy them?
Are you in the USA?
Tim Percy Kayak Fishing
Yes, in Mass. Can’t find them anywhere.
@@aznr1rider Contact Mariner Sails in Texas, they are the US distributor for FPV-Power.
Tim Percy Kayak Fishing thank you. I will reach out to them.
Will that run a trolling motor ??? Say minn kota 30lb trust ???
No, I don't believe so.
@@TimPercyKayakFishing can you try please. Just for testing perpess. 🤔 hopefully it works 👍👍👈
@@corysnladventures2758 I dont own a trolling motor
FPV-Power makes a 50Ah battery to run with trolling motors.
That is lot of amp hours
