The motor was designed for 12 volts and was designed to dissipate the heat from 12 volt power. When run at 24 volts the coils will heat up much faster than at 12 volts, and the motor will not be able to release the heat quickly enough.
Can I run my 12v trolling motor on 24v?
The answer is NO. Essentially, you have a 12 volt motor. If you try to run it on 24 volts, you will burn it up.
What happens if you run a 12 volt motor on 24 volts?
If you run a 12v motor from 24v its current drain and speed will still depend on the mechanical loading. However under no load it will now run at twice the speed at which it originally ran with 12v. Heating in the motor is still related to the current – so you can still run it at its full rated mechanical load/current.
Will 24v battery damage 12v trolling motor?
For a cable steer or hand controlled model this will not hurt the motor, but it will considerably affect the performance of the motor.However, an electric steer motor, such as, the PowerDrive, Terrova, or Ulterra cannot be used on lower voltages.
Can you run 12v pump on 24v system?
Yes, the pump will run faster on 24 V than on 12 V. It will draw more power, but also pump the water faster.
Can you run a 24 volt trolling motor on 36 volts?
According to Minn Kota you can run a 36 volt motor on 24 volts: BUT, it will run hotter, draw more amps, deplete the batteries sooner, and run the risk of damaging the batteries from over heating. The iPilot function and steering motor may not work. All in all, probably not a good idea.
Is the Minn Kota Power Drive V2 12 or 24 volt?
Minn Kota 24 Volt Power Drive V2 and RT/SP Control Board w/o Auto Pilot.
Is my Minn Kota 12 or 24 volt?
The nameplates are most often found in the foot petals of the motor. Otherwise, you can look at the configuration of the trolling motor batteries to find the volts. Open the hood and look at the battery. If you see 6 cells, it’s a 12-volt battery, but if you see 12 cells, it means it’s a 24-volt battery.
What’s the difference between 12 volt and 24 volt trolling motors?
The 24 volt has more power usually and lasts longer in the wind than the 12 volt. The disadvantage to 24 volt is the price and the extra weight. Thank you Ty. By the way, great work on the big fish the other day.
Can a 24v motor run on 12v battery?
However, if you have a 24 volt DC motor, but only have a 12 volt power supply, such as a car battery, your motor will still operate, although the speed at which it rotates will be slower.Locate the two terminals on the 24 volt DC motor.
Will a 24v motor run on 20V?
24V charger to 20V battery will work in a so-so way. As long as the charger can deliver a higher voltage than the battery(and sufficient amps to be useful) it’ll push energy into the battery.
Can you pull 12 volts off a 24 volt system?
You can use a DC (direct current) to DC converter for getting 12 Volts from a 24 Volt system safely. On the contrary, you need either a resistor or a series to get 12 Volts from a 24 Volt system.
Can a 24 volt DC motor run on 12 volts?
24v hooked to 12v will spin for a while on a full battery but there will be no torque. You could stop it with your hand. It is like running your motor with half the spark plugs missing.
What is the advantage of 24 volt or 12 volt?
24 Volts: Advantages
Using a 24 volt supply instead of a 12 volt supply greatly reduces the wiring cost to almost half the original cost. This is so because increasing the voltage of a system causes a reduction in the current through it, and in turn reduces the size of the wires you need .
What size of wire do you need to run a 24 volt trolling motor?
Wire Gauge And Circuit Breaker Size Guide
| Cell | Amps drawn | 15 ft length |
|---|---|---|
| 12 volt | 30 | 8 awg |
| 12 volt | 42 | 6 awg |
| 12 volt | 50 | 4 awg |
| 24 volt | 42 | 8 awg |
How do you get 24V out of 2 12V batteries?
The most common method for building a 24V system is to run batteries in series. Running batteries in series means they have a single electrical path equal to the sum of the system’s volts. So, if you have two 12V batteries wired in series, then 2x12V=24V.
Can you run a 36V Terrova on 24V?
Thus, one can use a 24V to run a 36V trolling motor. Even the amperes used by a 24V trolling motor depend on the speed setting, current, wind, boat weight, etc. You can run a 36V trolling motor on 24V, but I would not recommend doing so.
How long will a 24V trolling motor last?
This will give you maximum speed and power and is often necessary on a large boat, or in strong winds. Thus, if you operate your trolling motor at maximum speed, you will typically get about 2 hours of use from a fully charged pair of “average” batteries. Possibly 4 hours of use for the larger extra capacity batteries.
How long will a 36 volt trolling motor run?
Active Member. Anyone out there got experience with how many hours one should expect out of a 36 volt system running a 115 Minnkota trolling motor ? With full charge I’m only getting about 4 hours of battery life . Typical fishing use on power Set 1 – 3 with a few very short high power blasts.
