Trollbridge 24 unboxing

Thank you

I am worried that if this fails, my outboard will be effectively hooked up to 24 volts. Could this thing failing hurt my outboard?

[@sloth-worx]

I don’t think there’s anyway to get more than 12v to the outboard as long as the power and ground wires are only connected to one of the batteries. If the trollbridge fails I believe that you will not get 24v to the trolling motor or your batteries won’t parallel and you will only be charging the outboard/house battery. With that said it would definitely be possible to manually connect the wires to the wrong battery terminals and create an issue. Thanks for watching and commenting!!!

Can you run your trolling motor while the engine is on ?

[@sloth-worx]

You should be able to. There will be 24 volts at the trolling motor and 12 volts at the engine, but the engine will only be charging the battery the engine is connected to. With that said I’ll have to give it a try next time we go out. Thanks for commenting and watching!!!

Tried it today. Trolling motor work as it should with the outboard running. Only one battery will be charging with the trolling motor switch on though.
