Got my new Vexus mid June this year. Since our club hasn't been fishing tournaments this year I haven't used my live well. Saturday I went out and fished like I was in a tournament, had three fish in the well and after 3 hours the cranking battery was dead. 11.5v on Vessel View. Took it home and let the Dual Pro charge it up. After the cool down stage...next morning...the battery only had 12.43v. Pro-Guide spec is min 12.65v at cool state fully charged. So the battery was half discharged after charging.
Did some checking on the boat:
Boat Parasitic draw - .3A
Aerator Pump - .7A no load, 2.1A with load. Max Rating 3.5A
Pro-Guide (Owned by Battery Outfitters) batteries made by Johnson Controls so it says on the MSDS sheet.
Called Pro-Guide and they offered a full cash refund. Said the battery was shot. They were helpful and shared a lot of tech info.
Has anyone else had a problem with their Pro-Guides if you got them?
