Power pole draining battery?

[SGib]

Just got my boat back from shop yesterday. Come out today so install dash remote and foot control and battery is dead. Anyone have this problem before?

Sounds like a faulty install if you ask me

I never had an issue with mine. On my 21 the power pole is connected straight to the cranking battery and it stays on all the time. On my 24 they connected it to the Perko switch so it wont stay on all the time. You could have a bad battery or some other issue other than the Power Pole that ran your battery down.

Battery always seems a little weak. Prolly going to invest in a fresh one and perko switch. How long does your cranking battery usually last?

Hard to say I have never had it go down in 10 hrs for sure while fishing .
