Worst case (using unit while charging internal batteries), I think around 60W, I think the average is around 35W or so just running the pump and electronics.

About an inch to an inch and a half of water. My son uses this to clean his retainer and it has worked well for him.

Yes, it's like closing off the nozzle on a guarded hose - the pressure is still there (voltage) but the current flow is stopped. The battery stops charging when it's float limit is reached so that it won't boil off a wet cell battery. If the regulator couldn't handle the panel's charge potential then it would burn out once the battery reached full charge. One caveat however, the unit might require a battery to complete the hookup for the screen display.If it's a temporary battery exchange, I would disconnect one of the panel wires going into to the CM30 as well and install a fuse or switch on the solar panel side just to be safe.

Approximately 170-200 shots per fully charged battery. If you ever need to take more shots at any given time, the suggestion would be to carry with you an extra standard 3.6v lithium-ion battery. It is relatively inexpensive.

I don't think I would take that chance, water could get into the battery compartment, slim chance but the humidity would not do the compartment any good. But I am not absolutely sure of this.

I would suspect it does not have overcharge or float mode to protect from overcharging. There are several out there that are made specifically for maintaining a full charged 12 Volt wet cell battery for around $10 to $15. I use one by Cen-Tech for an old Jeep I have to keep the battery charged.

If you use any battery larger than the one included, don't use in water. The hull will split open where the tape holds it due to the larger size of the battery. Water will ruin your electronics.

This unit will not only keep you charged, it will extend the life of the battery.Low charge and weather changes are deadly. Keep contacts clean and proper water levels- use DISTILLED WATER.

Cowboy, I am not sure of this application. But I use this battery in my vacuum cleaner and it is often on it's side. It is a fully sealed battery, not one that you could add water.Hope that helps.

I only run GPS and VHF and USB chargers all with out a problem. It is keeping the battery at 13.9 volts which is higher than I thought it should be. The water level is staying up so is not being boiled away.

Not on any battery I have in Southern Virginia,,, I think it would be to hot & dry the battery out-especially one not capable of adding water.my 2 cents.

You should be able to put the battery in any orientation there is no liquid. Just make sure not to short it out.

This is almost the exact application for which I am using my DROK voltage indicator. YES. A fully charged battery will read approx. 12.7 volts on your boat's wet cell battery. Different instruments/devices require different voltages, so there is no real point at which you can expect things to "stop working," but yes, the voltage will drop as the battery is drained down.

I have never drained a full battery in any one use. I have taken my dog out using this device for 2 hours and the battery is still going strong. Sorry I don't know the exact answer, but hope this helps.

I would guess as much as any battery.... I haven't submerged the battery but it has been fine in light rain. Hope this helps.

I think the manufacture says it can as long as the battery door is closed correctly. I have had mine in about 1 inch of water and it was fine. Worked OK as long as I let it do its thing.
