Dear Rick and Mark,
Thank you for your insight.
I think the main issue with this gentleman is that the gauge always seems to be inaccurate, even when fully powered, so, when it says it has 2.5 hours remaining, he is never sure what he's got. The representation from Duffy as to the efficacy of the gauge was quite different.
That all said, it seems like you are saying one can never rely on their gauges? If that's true, these craft seem quite dangerous by design.
George, as to the advice re: a qualified technician, the boat manufacturer warranties the boat and this item, but refuses to fix. I should note, your tone is not appreciated...
Regards,
Scott Kaufman
