24v to 12v
hey all. anybody know of an easy way to get a 24v battery to feed a 12v system? seems like there are converters online but I don't see any locally.

I was given a deep cycle to try out on the camper. Do not know the size but I know its from a boat (many trolling motors are 24v) so im not sure. ive never heard of a dcdc converter so im not sure what the deal is.
Every trolling motor that I have ever owned has run on a 12 VDC battery, preferably deep cycle.
Connect a meter reading DC voltage on the battery terminals and that will determine the voltage.
Go look at Bass Pro's site or other fishing supply sites and you will find more 24v and 36v motors for bow mount motors than 12s. Lots of guys are switching to 24v's because they are more efficient than 12v motors. My neighbor can troll around the lake all day on two 12vs in series to his 24v motor.
