I’ve got an old Powerwinch 912 boat trailer winch that came with the boat the boat and trailer When I bought them. Because I moor my boat pretty much year round, I don’t use the trailer much. I take it out about twice a year for clean up and maintenance. But I’m also going to trailer to a few different destinations a few more times a year. Still not a lot of planned use.
The deep cycle 12 volt battery that powers the winch sits in a battery box mounted just below the winch. It’s almost done. Rather than getting a new one that just sits around and might get used at most 4 to 6 times a year, I was thinking that I might be able to use my Motomaster booster pack. It’s a 12 volt AGM battery that has 700 cranking amps (picture below).
I can’t see why it wouldn’t work, but I’m wondering if anyone has any experience doing the same thing or has any thoughts on it?
