Finally I have my fishfinder and will be installing it this weekend , Hopefully .

For the power supply what type of battery to use and where to find. Also A/C and D/C charging a must.

All advice is greatly appreciated.

Battery Plus carries a big selection of batteries and chargers for specific battery. Get one that has better than 7ah it will last a weekend use with out charging, good for weekend trips.

Thanks ceviche,

I got a 7ah batt. and a charger that works off ac and dc supply. I went to All Electronics and found everything I needed. The dc charger is great as I can plug it into my cigarette lighter and keep my batt. charged while in San Felipe for 5 days.

Fry's also has 12 volt batteries. I use a 12 volt charger for a car battery to charge the battery. At least when my battery dies I can charge it as well . Cost about $50 at Boaters World. Battery should be about $30 or less.
