I have a 14 ft flatbottom with a T34 trolling motor. I use it to troll around a large creek close to my house. My question is..is there a battery indicator i can hook up to my marine battery to monitor the performance and it be able to tell me when the battery is about done for the day. Keep in mind it would be something that connects directly to the battery.

get a fish finder.........most are set up with a voltage meter and they help you amp out the bottom.


i bought a hummingbird 565 for my first boat and it was an 13.5' aluminum.........dont know what i would do without it............it even has an alarm when your battery gets to a poor charged level.

you can get some models for around $60.

welcome to marineengine.......lots of great help on here.

"A simple voltmeter guage will give you a good indication of when your battery is getting low. When it is at 10.5 volts you need to start to worry. There are mor expensive charge state guages but this is what I would use in your case.
