Well -- As The Jeffersons said .." Well we're Movin' on Up" ........ "We've finally got a piece of the BIGGER pie!"



Looks like we will be moving into a much needed 36v TM here for the Delta !!


The Trojans I currently have work good still - Just seem to go weaker around 1300- 1500 depending on how I or the boys manage them ~ using the wind and the tide to the TM's Advantage from the get-go of planning a day. -- I have been playing around in alot of tidal eddy pockets the last month+ at the same time. -- to near going flat when I can't buck the tide to get my stuck bait before it becomes lost forever. :cry:

Gona go with the A/C's from The Hook and need to make a new home for three of them now - instead of the two.


It looks like I will need to re-arange what I have currently set-up by moving the 3 Bank charger over to the port side ... and then simply rewiring my 3 bank charger to just TM batteries only.


Image


Before that happens I will need to relocate my external fill Oil Resivor to where the 3 bank charger currently resides and possibly get a new extention hose from West Marine to fit the new location of the oil res where it currently sits.

My Question -- Does any know what type of fuses these are (looks like one for each battery for the TM ? ) I am "guessing" I will need to put another block in for the extra battery -- Anyone know if the breakers/amperage/fuses will need to be changed out as well from a 24v up to a 36v ??

Here is what I currently have....

Thanks,

PS- MikeD .. You have first dibs on the#74 MK 24v TM if you are still interested.

Dan, Look at you . . . 36 V!!! 8) 8) 8)

The fuses are 50amp on each battery. Adding another batt won't increase the amps provided by that battery - it will affect the overall voltage and amperage to the motor. I would recommend the re-setable breakers as opposed to fuses, but if you go with a fuse you can always pack some extras for just such an occasion.

My question would be the wire gauge you have running up to the pointy end. You will want to make certain that the gauge will handle the added amps without melting or overheating. Find out the max draw on that 36'er and what gauge wire you have to see if it is compatible :wink:

Hope y'all are doing well!
