[QUOTE="remm, post: 167906, member: 821"] I think your mind is already made up, just checking for reassurance as to not have any buyers remorse? I personally have a motorguide and love it, however I run lowrance with it so I'm biased. If you have no intention of linking your motors and the only thing your worried about is battery life, I'd just get the motor you want (looks to me like you're leaning toward the minnkota). I don't have much experience running a 12V motor so not sure on battery life, but I can't imagine the MG or MK would be much different. I will tell you, if you plan on running the spotlock for long periods of time, especially in wind, it'll drain your battery quite fast. If there is any way you could get a 24V system (no clue on cost difference and too lazy to look), that would be by far your best way to get more battery life if that's your main concern. Make sure you buy a quality battery always leave the dock with a full charge [/QUOTE]
