Batteries don't last long. What do I need to wire it so it uses power from my boat battery?

Does your boat have a 12V outlet? I have one in mine and bought a 12V power cord and keep it plugged into that.

No, but I can wire one in. I also saw they sell a battery eliminator for GoPro's. Guess I'll price the options and see what cheaper and easier

I have the same problem. I have three batteries that last around 1.5hrs each. The Cam Do looks great, but I own a Jon boat with no USB plugs on it.

 

I have a few small 12v batteries for my fish finders. Can I rig it on them somehow? They have Flag terminals.

The Minn Kota battery box Includes two 12-volt accessory plugs, and 2 manual reset circuit breakers (10 amp for accessory plugs and 60 amp for trolling motor). Fits group 24- and 27-size batteries. But I got 31's in it.  I use two in the Old Town.

This helps as well.
