    Lighbar tower Power Requirements

    I have a couple amps already operating off my optima blue top (the only batery that I have in my boat). Has anyone had any issues with too much current draw when using a light bar?

    nope...but they did up the power on the alternator in '05 (I have an '05 210).

    I can run the bow lights, tower lights, stereo, heater, interior lights, and just about every other button on my dash without a problem.

      I have 6 tower lights on my 05' 206 running w/standard single battery, I get a "Low Voltage" warning at idle with all lights on and other accy's if all 6 tower lights are switched on. Off idle it is no problem.

          I believe the 05's came with 100amp Alternators.
