Can I use 12V car battery or 12V lead-acid marine battery to fuel the relay?

12 volts DC is 12 volts DC. I'd probably recommend some kind of circuit breaker in case something gets shorted to ground, since batteries mentioned have quite a bit of amperage behind it.

Yes, i have used it with a 12 volt battery in my fish houe. Works great. I get around 6 hours of run time.

Yes, "For all sizes, types and brands of 12 volt lead-acid batteries". Including but not limited to: Flooded (filler cap / maintenance-free/ VRLA / SLA), gel, AGM (Optima/Odyssey/ etc.) Starter, deep cycle and hybrid.

I found this link that has a diagram in the aditional pics http://www.dbelectrical.com/p-8429-marine-solenoid-battery-master-disconnect-relay.aspx

Yes, however you will need a 12 volt relay to handle the current to the motor.

When using to jump start marine battery do you attach negative clamp to battery pole or the metal chassis. My book says metal but

That is correct, 12v is required. You will also need space for the battery fairly close to the motor mount. Original leads from the motor are about 4'

Yes you can . I use it with a generator to keep the agm battery charged in my race car. Thank you

It is 24 volt so you would need 2 deep cycle marine batteries. Any brand would is fine.

This unit is for 24V system such as marine application, it will not work in your car which is 12V system

By "amp", I assume that you mean the charge controller. You can wire a cigarette lighter "plug" to the charge controller battery terminals and charge the battery with the solar panel. Many people where I live use this configuration to keep their boat battery charged. Be sure to unplug the charge controller from the cigarette lighter socket before starting the engine. The engine driven alternator may damage the charge controller.

You will need deep cycle or Marine batteries for trolling motors. Unlike Car batteries, deep cycle batteries are designed to be discharged upto 80+% before recharging where as Car (starter) batteries have more cranking amps.

12 volts marine grade battery is the best easy to maintain and hassle free but I'm using normal battery not dry still it's do the trick and make sure it's is fully charge before every use,if u are a frequent user than use dry cell if not normal will just fine,have a good fishing trip and good luck

I bought mine a year ago and have been using a standard 12 Volt battery in my boat. Never had a problem and it does it all. I use it to steer my ipilot troweling motor.

Any 12 volt will work. I plug mine into a cigarette lighter plug on my boat.

Oh, whoops. I used mine while the engine was running with no problems. My 12-volt ports aren't powered unless my car is at least in accessory mode.If you're really afraid of your battery dying, you're probably ok using it with your car on. Just wait until your car is started before plugging it in (to prevent a surge) and make sure your parking brake is engaged.

No, the car is wired for a 6V battery. A 12V battery could cause wiring problems.
