Unfortunately the charger that came with the kit has no charging light indicator, so I'm using a meter reader and voltage chart to read the battery capacity. Cheers for the info. I guess it's not going to need much charge throughout the season for me then

Ok, thanks. Expensive to replace so wanted to make sure I didn't mess them up

Bought myself a power barrow conversion which uses Ultramax Lithium 10A / 12V LifePO4 batteries. My questions is a what point do you recharge then batteries? After about 7 trips out it seems to still be holding charge above 90% so I've not charged it . I've been told to keep it fully charged to extend the battery life, but I can't seem to get any info about this.

Used a screwdriver wrapped with a bit of masking tape to plug the hole, then inserted into a drill…worked a treat, went on pretty neat too

This year I changed my preferred hook pattern of Korda curve shank to the wide gape hook pattern. Never had a problem with Korda hooks before, always very sharp and reliable but until my recent trips. The lake I was fishing has no snags or thick weed but the fish don't half scrap. On using the wide gape hook I had one open up n me which resulted in a loss fish and one hook completely snap on me. Neither of these fish was played hard and can't really understand why this has happened. Anybody else experience this before? or is it just a bad batch that has fallen into my hands?. I do want to continue using Korda hooks but I've lost a bit of confidence now and thinking of changing over to another company's hooks maybe
