So if your from the US and your having trouble getting the 12v adapter. Try Amazon.com and I found this link below that should work as well for the cord MILAPEAK (Real 18AWG) 10 Pairs 12V 5A DC Power Pigtail Barrel Plug Connector Cable, 2.1mm x 5.5mm Male Female DC Pigtail Connectors for CCTV Security Camera and 12V Power Supply Adapter a.co/d/7KjXJtK
This is great! I purchased a used fishfinder for my son to take with when kayaking. Already have the dewalt batteries and want to set this up in a portable box from harbor freight
@ronniehenson4122 I'm not sure how long it will last my fish finder will last on a 5amp battery all day without turning it off I mean like 12-14 hours. But I just have a hook 4 chirp
Yeah man it's awesome and super handy! I use it to charge all my gear when out on trips. The 6 amp battery with the 12v actually acts more like a 12amp cause your using a 20v system that is being brought down to 12v. I think my graph will last 4 days of continuous use.
Yeah it's a cool option for sure. We are in our lul season of fishing and I figured I'd share ideas and thing's that have helped me! While prepping for new adventures 😜
You can buy a 12 ah lifepo4 battery for about $50. It weighs less than your dewalt 60v batteries, lasts longer per charge, and you are not using up a $175 dollar dewalt battery, so your drill will still work when you need it to. Just food for thought.
@bdd1469 True, but those cheap batteries can be duds for one, and this is an option for if you needed a battery in the moment. I have one, and its saved my ass many times
@adventuretimefishinghunting Ya, anything can be a dud. That's why I have an entire milk crate full of dewalt tools and batteries that no longer work. I paid less for 3 Li time 12ah batteries than one dewalt 9ah 60v battery costs. None of them have failed. I have a half dozen dewalt 60v batteries also, but I prefer to use cheap batteries for play and save the expensive ones for work. To each their own.
Yeah it might work for sure! You just need the 12volt adapter. But ther very cheap to order at the same time. There's a link below for the cord for them.
I have a power bank and that’s a great idea. Did you try it? I don’t see why that wouldn’t work with the female version of what he recommended. I can’t find the adapter with a 12v dc output port on USA Amazon
@whiplash5108 try this here I got this from Amazon.com side not ca MILAPEAK (Real 18AWG) 10 Pairs 12V 5A DC Power Pigtail Barrel Plug Connector Cable, 2.1mm x 5.5mm Male Female DC Pigtail Connectors for CCTV Security Camera and 12V Power Supply Adapter a.co/d/7KjXJtK
@@adventuretimefishinghuntingThank you for the reply. I was referring to the Laimiao battery adapter. I can’t find that but saw the dewalt one and it only has the usb outputs. Others will have the other output port but with only 9v output instead of -2v
Was your battery display all out of whack on your fish finder . I did same thing to my helix 5 and I'm using a DeWalt 5AH . The battery always says 50-30% but the battery guage reads full so I'm trusting the battery guage. Just wondering if you run into same minor problem ?
No not at all for some reason my batter display hasn't been on my graph for a long time so I just use the bars on my batteries. My 6amp flex volt will last forever. My 5 Amp will also last quite awhile.
@@adventuretimefishinghunting what a great idea though. To think I almost bought a dedicated lifepo4 battery for my finder when I already have a ton of DeWalt and Milwaukee batteries .
@Justin Powell yeah I almost did the same. It saved my ass for sure. I may eventually still pick up one but. It's super handy to have. I also have 2-6 Amp flex volts, 2-5 amps, 2- 4 amps and 2- 3 amps.
You have the wire listed as female on the video but looking at the male vs. Female on Amazon, looks like you're using the male version. Can you confirm whether it's male or female? 😁
