In this video, I build a 12v kayak battery box that will provide enough energy to power my lights, sonar and cameras. The GoPro Hero 12's draw a significant amount more power than the Hero 10s that I had previously used on the kayaks. After upgrading the power points for the cameras to allow them to draw the energy needed to keep the cameras in Hindsight mode without batteries (to keep the cams cooler), I found a significantly higher amperage draw, and the existing 10aH LiFePO4 would only go about 6 hrs before complete discharge. Here, we build a new battery box that doubles the power to 20aH, while keeping the price under $100.
