[QUOTE="Deano, post: 672727, member: 24559"] NedK Yes I have 4 back-up GPX 6000 batteries for a total of 5. Because they take so very long to charge up, and always extra spare batteries would be ready at hand without any worries at all of running out. Also, if there’s more batteries then there is less discharge and recharge cycles so they last longer (not wear out as fast) in the long run, so they can be rotated in order by numbering all my batteries 1 through 5 with a marker pen to be used in a numbered sequence so not to use the same battery twice in a row. ~Yes the CT Goldhawk 10x5 or 9 round are very good choices from what I hear, but do not buy the 14x9 because wait for the better NF Xceed 16x10 to come out in the future. I do not own a CT Goldhawk but I do own a NF Xceed 12x7. The NF’s wires are most secured, are very durable, last a very long time, and do not wear out, except like any other coil being under the skid plate. [/QUOTE]
