Title: Re: Depth finder power source

Using 8 alkaline batteries is a very common mistake. Manufactures will picture alkaline batteries in there battery holders that hold 8 batteries. That said there are some detectors that list the operating voltage down to 7 volts. Those detectors would use most of the power out of a pack of 8 alkaline batteries.
