House battery

[Buckmaster7600]

I use a house battery in my boy 16ft Starcraft. I run my helix 9, helix 5, fishhawk x4d, marine radio, CD player and charge phones of a group 27 that's not hooked to the main battery. Never had a problem and never have went below 11.5volts with the group 29 I have now. I am getting new cannon digitrol 5's and was wondering if you guys thought I could hook them to the house battery or if I should run them of the main battery hooked to the main outboard group 27? My kicker is a 5hp 4stroke and doesn't add enough charge to make any difference. Thanks for any help in advance.

Run them off the main battery. They are very powerful and draw juice.

11.5 volts is significant voltage drop and/or too low. Your battery should typically run at 12.4 volts or higher

I have never actually checked it, I have my low voltage alarm on my FF set to 11.5 and it's never went off.
