Making some adjustments with my electronics

[Jaspratt]

With This recent cold weather it has done a number on my batteries. In particular, My power pole remote battery keeps dying the second I try to use it. So in an effort to resolve that issue without carrying multiple nickel sized batteries on me I decided to hard wire my remote to my main power source. Found a voltage reducer from 12v to 3v. Soldered somethings together, and I made a riser for the remote to house the voltage reducer. Also Epoxied some areas afterwards to protect everything from corrosive moisture. 9AA65DE9-AE38-47A5-BA8B-A2B20DDE525F.jpgC487B5E2-62D1-4D6E-87F7-8C9456E82083.jpg8A027FEC-8747-4DB6-A444-1CCF15096711.jpg63FD5501-1FCF-4F64-BCBD-556FBF16415B.jpg

So the goal is to never worry about replacing batteries and consolidate my power sources to one source. Still need to install it. Will update

Looks great, very intuitive. Is that for the glitter boat, or do you have a Micro on the yak?

This is for the kayak. But maybe an option for the boat

Update of the install..
Between the riser I made and the remote I put some gasket maker to help seal the electronics from moisture. Ran the wires and tied them into an open spot on my power bar.
