Interested to hear what you guys use your batteries for when splitting to power up multiple items. 

Fishfinders are the obvious one (and power poles & motors), but I've also seen lights and dash kits...what other items do you guys rig up to your battery in your kayaks?

I believe the vast majority of kayak fisherman on this site run just a FF on their batteries some a SS and or live bait tank. That's about it.

If fishing salt,
FF/GPS get a dedicated battery.
If you want all that other crap, then add a second battery .
This way, when all that other crap corodes out you will have a back up battery for your FF/GPS.
