Portable chargers
« on: Nov 13, 2019, 06:56 PM »
Just wondering what everyone is using to charge their electronics on the ice (ie iPads, phones, aquavu micro, GoPro) the reason I will be using an iPad is for my underwater GoPro setup for my son

Thank you

Look at small 1000watt inverter generators...they can be bought pretty reasonable.

Ok, just hold your horses........ You can’t just come in here and start talking all “iPad this” and “underwater gopro” that and NOT give us more details on how this setup works! lol :) (I’m hoping that came across friendly  :tipup:)


Sounds pretty neat man.

Just so you're aware, the wireless GoPro to iPad function won't work in the water.

I use a USB battery pack to charge my phone if needed. The fish finder has its own 12 volt battery that will last for an outing.

I have one of those NOCO lithium battery jumpers for my terribly cold blooded ATV.  It also has USB charging capabilities.  If I didn’t have that, I’d probably get one of the charge adapters for my 20v Dewalt batteries.
