Has anyone used this new seaview light with 1 million candle power for squid? I have used the other lights with good sucsess. Should you bring an extra battery or portable power pack? How long does it last on one battery?

Thanks,

I have two of the sea view lights. They are very nice, and very brite.
They will bring the squid up to the boat. They certainly will kill your batteries though. They are just like leaving the head lamps on your car on. They will kill a good battery in 30-40minutes. I leave my engine just above idle 850-900 rpm which makes them even brighter yet. Performance is great, but you will have to leave your engine on.
Thats the draw back. BIG TENTACLES OUT !!!

Thanks for the info BT. I thought there would be a hugh draw on your batteries with that much candle power. I will bring the portable battery jumper just for back up.
