This is to go through from the battery pod to hull, so no water involved unless a pod floods.

I suspect Min Kota 40's at 12v. There will be 4 of these.</div><div><br></div><div>I know i should know the voltage and peak current to work this out correctly, but i dont know, so its just a sort of rough idea.<br>Any thoughts?
