    Default 20v Battery Adapter


    I just ordered a Garmin 93sv, with livescope. Planning on running it on dewalt 20v batteries. Just wondering what kind of adapter you prefer or have had experience with?

    I ordered the SeeLite but I seen afterwards that Dewalt has their own for a cheaper price. I have currently 2 5 AH batteries for it. One will run the black box and 93sv for 4 to 41/2 hours. I have a 9 Ah on order.

    Thanks for the info Popa. I’ve looked at the seelite. But I’ve seen some on Amazon for around $17-18. I was wondering if those are as well made as the Seelite.

    Should you run Garmin Chartplotters on Dewalt batteries?

    Livescope Black Box 10-32 volts
    Chartplotters 10-18 volts.

    I use the Dewalt setup on my Livescope box only..

    We use these, 2 pack Power wheels adaptor for 20V dewalt Battery 18V dewalt dock power connector 12 gauge robotics - - Amazon.com due to price and 12 ga wire. If you are referring to the voltage, Garmin says good to 24 volts. Go to Garmin Support and call or chat if it makes you feel better, know it did for us.

    I would like to use the Dewalt Flex batteries on our small boat which I have 2D/SI/DI only. I prefer to follow the written specs instead of what a Garmin tech says. Garmin techs have make many wrong statements when answering questions on Ghost tree & Dead spots.

    Unless you already have drill batteries the Amped Outdoors and several other lithium battery folks are cheaper with more amp hours with no adapters needed .

    I ran my Garmin all day yesterday on a 20v cordless tool battery - in my case it was a Worx brand battery. It was a test where I just hooked up some blade terminals to tap into the battery. It worked fine although I am sure the blade terminals would slip out easy if I took this fishing. I'd like to find some way to secure them better, yet still be able to quickly remove and drop in my charger.
