Short battery life? Seems like the pack would be easier than hauling around the 12v. What was your experience/reason?
8 aa batterys will work the same as 8 d they are both 1.5 volt batterys 8x1.5 =12. d's will last longer then a's
I s caned the pac cuz it drops volts after having the light on for some time. when when the volts drop the sonar gets week.

Its small, relatively light, will run your model of finder for days. One battery vs 8.

if you must have the pac let me know.
