Hey man, its almost the new millenium!! Get with it! :-)

Mine has aircraft landing lights, air conditioning and a trip computer!I am trying to hook up cruise control, but am having trouble finding a doctor to inplant the sensors required for the computer!

Just kidding, but if you have a electric pump set-up you can use the battery from this. Make sure your accessories don't drain it though. You could even hook up a light system for night paddling. Or a stereo system if nature isn't enough.

On second thought don't use the pump battery. It is a safety item and should not be compromised in any way. The more things hooked to it the more that can (and will) go wrong. Make a seperate system.
