    I know this isn’t Humminbird exactly…..but does anyone know where I get a replacement battery for my iPilot Link remote? I’ve heard you have to order them from Minnkota. I have a hard time believe Batteries Plus or someone wouldn’t carry them.

    I had to order mine direct – called and made the order and had them in a couple days.

    I ordered one last Wednesday from MinnKota and had it Saturday, with Shipping less than $15. Very good service 800-227-6433

    You can buy a generic battery from eBay or Amazon and solder the minnkota connector onto it. How much was the battery from mk?

    Fish-Lectronics up near Fridley off of University carries them. $10. Problem solved.

    Thanks for the replies.

    @BP

    Did you happen to see if they carried chargers too? I was having flaky connections last weekend and not sure if I need a replacement.

    I’ll second that. I brought in a PD foot pedal last summer that my BIL somehow lost a spring from. The guy replaced the spring and didn’t charge me a thing.

    Think you will find the remote end is the flaky part. I have known of several no where the female end on the remote fails, NOT the charger end.

    I had to buy a new remote.
