It's amazing with all the psa's and messaging out there about PFDs that people don't wear them, especially in a river with current.

If you look at the Product Description portion of the Amazon listing you'll see this "- Capacity: 10000mAh / 37Wh". Ah is a number that can be fudged by changing voltage, Wh is a constant.<br /><br />37Wh%12V=3.08Ah. This can be verified here https://www.rapidtables.com/calc/electric/wh-to-mah-calculator.html<br /><br />So where does the "10,000mAh" claim come from? If you take 37Wh and divide it by 10Ah you get 3.7V. 3.7 is the nominal voltage of the lithium cells that make up the battery. Technically I guess it's not lying, but it's pretty shady. $60 is by no means a good deal for a 12V 3Ah battery when you can get a 7Ah Dakota Lithium for $70.

Anyways;<br /> Thanks first off for an informative post. I, like some others it seems, have some confusion about how to hook up the battery to your FF. The double ended 12v connector you used to splice in FF; when you cut open the jacket on that wire are there two wires inside (for +/-)? If so, are they generally labeled or color coded? If not, how did you determine polarity? Also, if there arent two wires, then where did you run your negative/black wire from your FF to? I purchased a 32,000 mah battery, similar to the one you show, and need to hook it up soon so Im hoping you have some more wonderful insight!

I have done much research on this and have written a policy paper on it for our meetings with city, county and townships. State statutes 30.66 of boating regulations does give smaller jurisdictions the right to institute slow-no-wake ordinances. We are going through all the proper channels and attending all the proper governmental meetings as quickly as their calendars allow. If you don't mind, I would like to print your article and submit it with our growing evidence to all the concerned board members to peruse. I also will share this article in a few groups I have access to.
